"Well worth 180 bucks."

Feature:
Eh, it has a volume and tone knob... nothing special.

Quality:
Well, its a 180 dollar bass, it cant be expected to last years. I mean, it will last long enough as long as you protect it from people who cant hold a bass. take care of it, it should last a good while. The knobs came loose easily, but you can easily fix that. Not really a problem at all. The input i never really had a problem with... ti came loose a few times, but also, very easily fixed. I just checked it to see if it was tight and sturdy every now and then.

Value:
For the money, this is a great bass. if you are low on money, this is a good bass. Great for beginners, and a great everyday practice bass.

Desirability:
It looks great, its cheap, plays great, why not?

Sound:
This bass is pretty good in sound. It's got a nice appropriate growl, especially if you upgrade it with new strings such as Ernie Ball. I used it for motnhs without changing strings... then i finally put some ernie balls on it, and it sounded great. So basically, it sounds great, its not the best, but you cant expect much from it.

Support:
Well, i never needed help with it, but ive heard Fender is really great in support.

Overall:
I give it a ten for the price. I dont think theres any bass as great as this in its price range.
