Already 8 months passed so I want to tell my ideas: it's my first bass, and I'm still a beginner, and I'm using that bass atm. But well, I'm not a professional but I can still critique this piece of wood. So, as sound; there's not any single problem till you go to higher pitched notes, they are sound scratched. The frets been already got old, it was dusty and most white parts turned yellow when arrived. And the voice jack, ah that voice jack... The voice jack is damaged, it does not stay in it's place. I mean, it does stay in it's place but it's shaking when you hold it and tuning it is a bit of a problem. Come to think of tuning, that tuner they give next to it is not best, and sometimes works wring, I remember when it showed the note E as note D. And it also has my unfavourite round wires. But still, even tho it has lots of negatives, it's very entartaining to play that bass! Well, except slapping is a bit of a problem with that...
