JB-75 SB Vintage Series : Great bass for begginers

I purchased this bass a little over one year ago. It was my first bass, as I had previously only played guitar. So far I have found it quite satisfying. It has held up nicely as a tool for practice and band rehearsal.

Pros:

Extremely affordable, which is godsend for people who just want to try the instrument out

Nice, comfortable and sturdy body

Solid tuning stability

Good sound quality for the money

Cons:

The edges of the frets are a little bit sharp, but nothing too serious

It came with a tiny scrape on the fretboard, but that's just a visual problem

The print on the pickguard looks a bit cheap and tacky up close

With that said, on a whole this bass will give you a lot of bang for your buck, and I would wholeheartedly recommend this to a beginner or someone who is looking for a solid backup.
