PJ-74 VW Vintage Series : It really is as good as they say.
TL;DR - get it! It is amazing and versatile. Tons of tonal variation.
I only had a 6 string bass with me now, and I needed a 4 string bass, wanted to try a Precision, didn't have too much money to spend - this was an easy choice. And a good one.
Intonation from the factory was playable, not quite perfect, but definitely playable.
Action perhaps to the medium-higher side, but I like it like that.
I get it out of the box, tune it and play it for almost two hours. - it did not get out of tune! Saw people saying the tuners are meh, but I think it is more correct to say that they are definitely okay, not meh.
The neck feel is incredible. I knew it was a good instrument for the money, but I did not expect such a nice satin neck.
Frets and everything are great, everything is perfect and quality.
I had to lower the P pickup due to occasional popping sound when playing slap and I raised the J pickup.
Volumes and tone are great to dial in a blend between the pups or just find your sweetspot.
Both pickups are surprisingly great, kinda like a jazz bass. P pickup is great, sounds like a P. J pickup is quieter of course.
It neck dives a bit, but a nice leather strap negates that.
Strings are nice, I bought flats with it, but I will definitely let these roundwounds die first.
It sounds great, like you would expect a fender to sound.
The output of the pickups is quite high.
I love it. Definitely a recommendation! It feels nice to play a super cheap thing too , just out of principle haha.
