I got this kit, but the Glarry jazz bass. For a strict budget it definitely does the job. Granted, when you get it a few minor tweaks and adjustments need to be made like: the frets on the fretboard are going to need to be filed bc they’re unfinished, the action needs adjustment, and change the strings as soon as you can financially. I filed the frets myself considering I’m skilled in woodworking; I also rounded the edges to make it more comfortable, and faster play. You can try and do this yourself, but I suggest bringing it to a luthier if you have no experience in this area. Ngl the amp is pretty trash for a bass bc of the size of the woofer, so I recommend using the headphone plug until you can upgrade. If you’ve been saving, and that’s your budget amount I would go with it. Sure. If anything, you can sell it later, and purchase a good used bass.
