JB-40FL 3-Tone Sunburst : Great jazz bass for such a low cost

I bought this bass guitar as a practice bass, so not to wear out the one I use when playing live.

The bass was well packaged when it arrived. Also included allen keys, and a guitar cable. The strings are pretty high end too which was a nice surprise.

This bass is very well finished, with a nice layer of hard lacquer over flame burst colors, The neck is narrow and perfectly playable with a matt finish and rosewood fretboard, offering good tones and sustain while playing.

The bass wood body is a little heavy, but for the price no complaints there.

The pickups and volume/tone pots are noiseless and offer a great degree of volume and tone. Though I've never heard of Wilkinson pickups, they actually sound pretty good. the neck and bridge pick ups are very responsive and adjustable especially to get those, pino Paladin / Jaco Pastorious style sounds.

This bass required very little in the way of bridge or truss adjustment, the bridge height and intonation were already set up to give a good tone and sustain.

I would highly recommend this bass for beginners wanting a frettless Jazz bass on a budget. You will get a lot of bass for such a low cost.
