CV Jaguar Bass 3-SB : Great instrument, poor tuners

Overall, this is a fantastic bass and well worth the money.

Fretwork, build quality, fit and finish are all excellent. Comparing it to my 2018 CV 70's P-bass, it's just as good in those aspects. My particular bass is very light, around 3.5kg. The pickups are good and the controls versatile, giving a wide range of possible tones. I am happily surprised by the 32" scale length (it was originally listed as 34" at the time I pre-ordered it, but it is in fact 32"), it's really fun to play and sacrifices nothing in tone.

The tuners let the side down, however. They are poor quality and it shows ("grindy" and inconsistent in feel), I recommend to upgrade them as soon as you get it.

Still well worth it, though, it's a great instrument and I'm really enjoying mine!
