B-550 White Progressive Series : A great Bass all around!

I bought this as my first Bass after playing Guitar for 10 years and it exceeded my expectations.

First of all, the built quality is great! The bass looks great and has no chipped paint at all, not even around the screw holes which is often a problem with more affordable guitars in general. All the Hardware sits nice and fit on the body and does its job well.

The Neck looks very nice and feels great to play. The fretboard is nice to move around on and the frets themselves are even and don't have any sharp edged.

More importantly, about the sound. Its great!

A very nice, warm sound and thanks to the active circuit a lot of different tones are achievable. The pickups do their job well, but in instruments in this price range a pickup change could enhance the sound some more.

I can't name a single complain and a few of my bass playing friends didn't have any either.

I can recommend this Bass to everyone who wants a great beginner instrument or a first try at a 5 String Bass.
