B-550 QTB Progressive Series : A lot of Bass for the money

Pros:

-Everything that's on it works, stays in tune as well.

-Good neck, quite even frets, no serious flaws.

-Active/Passive and EQ gives a good variation of sounds.

-No visual flaws. The red "tiger stripes" could have been a little bit brighter, but still has a pretty unique look to it.

Cons:

-Factory strings are meh, as per usual (pretty obvious to change strings on any budget instrument anyway)

-Fret ends are a little bit sharp, but that's something I have even seen on a 500€ instrument. Easy fix with a small file or some tape and sanding block.

-Active circuit is a little bit noisy on certain EQ settings. While I do consider it a con, I don't intend to use the active EQ anyway, sounds good enough in passive mode.

Overall I'm really happy with the purchase. A must have for writing your own basslines as a guitar player.
