PJ-75 VW Vintage Series : Solid but I might sell it

4 years ago

I got this as a travel instrument b/c I didn't want to be without a bass for a month last summer. It is quite playable out of the box. Action is a little low; buzzed out more than I liked. It is light. Lighter than my G&L 4-string. The jack holds the cable well. The knobs turn smoothly and are not static-y. Stays in tune. But it turns out that I don't really use the bottom string except as a thumb rest. The music I'm playing doesn't need a lower string.

And that is the true value of this instrument! For only ~$180, I got to play around with a 5-string and I can sell it at a slight loss and try something else. Or I can hold onto it and see if I need that low string in the future.
