Perfect Beginner's Bass

I would like to clarify that I purchased this Bass as a total beginner, wanting to learn how to play and I will review it as such.

The bass arrived at a perfect condition and in tune. Given its price I couldn't believe its quality, although I had some minor issues with the J pickup that didn't sound good something that was fixed with some setting.

The bass is beautiful and nicely balanced but above all I found its neck really comfortable and it delivers a nice tone in both pickups.

It certainly needed a set up, but as a beginner I didn't notice it. After one year I took it to a luthier, he did his magic and the bass now is even better. Even he, who makes basses for a living, was really impresses when I told him the price of the instrument.

TLDR: Really reccomended for a beginner player. Most beautiful bass in the world!
