Shorty Bass BK : Has potential-great for the price

The primary reason I chose this bass was for its size and hence portability. It would be excellent for anyone starting out who does not like strain of guitar strap on shouder or someone with a bad back. The sound is very bright and zingy, probably emphasised by the brand new strings. It lacks depth because it is missing most of the body. It surprisingly sounds very good for jazz! Perhaps it is the pick-up? String bends sound very cool. The body is very small but fretboard and neck are standard size, so dont be fooled into thinking that this is not a "grown-up's" bass. The action is a little high for my liking straight out of the bag, but I'm sure with a little adjustment this will sound decent enough. This bass has great potential
