JB-75MN NA Vintage Series : very good for the price you pay

I bought this as a joint present for my dad and I as we had both wanted to learn to play bass for quite a while. I didn't want to spend too much money on something that neither of us had experience with playing before so chose this bass.

Downsides

1) The pick ups are not the loudest pickups you can have on a bass guitar, however these can be swapped out/upgraded if/when you need to.

2) the bass isn't the lightest. having said that, it is easy and comfy to play for several hours at a time before it really starts to become an issue.

3) the strap screw on the bottom of the bass came off after a few months, however this was easily fixed and can be an issue on any baa you buy.

Positives!

1) The bass is great value for price and the perfect bass for beginners that are not too sure if they will like playing bass.

2) the tuners hold the tuning incredibly well

3) has that classic fender look for a fraction of the price

4) is a very solid bass that wont break too easily for those who are clumsy like me

all in all, if you are looking for a back up bass, or a starter bass, then this is the one you need!
