PB-50 SB Vintage Series : Surprisingly good!!

Overall, very impressed for the money.

The body is very good, nice feel and finish, some nice grain coming through, all of the hardware is relatively neat and wobble free. Controls are solid and work well, if a little "on/off", but I'm not surprised and didn't think these would be much good anyway. The pickguard is a bit roughly cut, but again nothing too bad and this may or may not end up going. The bridge and tuners are surprisingly quite good for the price, and I thought these would be essentially useless and clearly where money had been saved.

The most interesting thing about this bass is the fact that it's a Wilkinson pickup. Soundwise it does what it's meant to do. Not the most characterful pickup, does solid rock/pop and quite good for funk sounds. Bassier than I thought it would be, but definitely happiest with lower mids. Great build quality,good range of sounds,well balanced,quick easy set-up and we were good to go.This comes with D'ddario strings and a thumb rest so you can pluck with your thumb.

The bottom line is this:If you like Fender P bass's you will like the PB-50.

For it`s price I `d recommend this bass to anyone.Fantastic value.
