MB-5 SB Deluxe Series : Amazing bass

From when I first saw it in person I fell in love with the look of it. The finish is amazing and the matching headstock adds so much professionalism to the look of it.

Soundwise it sounds really good, with the split-coil humbucker I can make a variety of different sounds by changing the volume of both coils, and the tone pot adds even more versatility to this instrument.

The pickups are passable and will work well in any recording session, they are passive pickups so they will need more gain and will sound less full in my experience anyway. But at least you wont need to worry about buying 9v batteries

The only downside I have to this instrument is that there were a few frets that needed some work and the action needed a bit of an adjustment, but that it the case for most new guitars/ basses.

I do like the addition of an alan key case with alan keys to adjust the truss rod and the saddles, along with a guitar cable.

Overall this bass is a must have for intermediate bass players and people who want to dip into the world of 5 strings and for a project template to work on. Like changing pickups etc.
