Surprisingly good

Didn't expect too much at this price but boy was I wrong, sounds great, looks amazing and does everything just as well as my other "named" brands, nice and well balanced, very easy to play.

Good bass guitar for a beginner

Bought this for my wife as her first bass guitar. She likes it very much. It looks good sounds good and feels good to play. Even her teacher tried playing this instrument and said that for this money it is amazing and sounds really good. It is possible to achieve many different kinds of tones by turning the knobs. The only complaint she had is that there is no instructions on what the knobs do.

Amazing, especially considering it's an entry level instrument

I purchased this as a gift for a 10-year-old girl who became obsessed with bass after watching Maneskin's bass player. It arrived today and I wanted to test it out before presenting it to her.

I couldn't put it down! It plays really well and the tone is very versatile. I love that it has a passive/active option, which adds even more breadth to the tonal palette.

The hardware looks pretty solid too.

P.S. I've been playing bass for nearly 30 years, and I have some pretty high-end basses. I could definitely see myself taking this to a gig.

OK for the price...

I don't understand the reviewers that claim using this bass in professional situations. The bass plays fine, but the sound is not a good tone from the stock pickups/electronics. They sound quite harsh to my ears. As far as finish, I'm sure it's a photo top and they almost could of gone full out black as the translucent finish is so dark you can barely see the faux wood grain. With sound being high on my criteria, I ended up selling it. Playability was fine though.
