Feature:
Very pleasant to play. The finish is very well. Cool 60th anniversary logo on end neck, plate neck. This bass will take value with the years. Pots and electronics ares very good built. The hard case is simply splendid. 60th logo inside panel and chrome finish tweed.

Quality:
I was look many kinds of "big" bass like Musicman, lackland and vintage Fender original. My choice stoped on this one. It have all that i want. Great sounding (vintage precision bass sounds) quality built,agreement to play and extention of my heart...

Value:
I've paid $1250.00 Canadian At this price (62 vintage pick up, three colors sunburst, 60th ann. logos and diamond, unic hard case andmany more) i think it'a a real bargain.

Sound:
I play bass since last 20 years. I play many style Punk rock to gospel musics. When i've put this bass in my Ampeg B4R into SVT610 classic cabinet, i say... wow. It's amazing ! Thesound is very tight. Very beefy, chrunchy, loud and creamy. With a 62 vintage pick up, i could having THE sound of my dream. I played with a Godin B4 actives EMG pickup, but Godin remain far behind.

Ease of Use:
It'a a professional instrument. It'a hot Fender piece. All is right on this bass. neck, tunes keys, knobs, and amazing 62 vitage pick up.

Overall:
I recommand this baby to all serious bassman.
