Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (29 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Very Happy Player"
Sound: Bottom sound is great but the upper sounds could be better. I'm hoping that better strings will help. Feature: It did come with an amp cord. Kinda lame. I have better cords it they do make a difference. It could have at least came with instructions on bridge adjustments and knob control information. They could have also at the least included a bag or case. Ease of Use: The fit for me is very good. I like the feel, not has heavy as some have listed. My Les Paul guitar is heavier. Will be changing the strings though. I'm just learning the bass, but have been playing stringed instruments for 40 years. Quality: I like the finish. It is different than most that I have seen. Easy to clean. Not a lot of frills to it. Looks very well made and solid. It should last a long time, unless I do a John Entwistle with it. Value: Great price for a good looking bass that feels great playing. Just don't like the strings. Manufacturer Support: I can only assume. And we all know what that stands for. The Wow Factor: Very sexy. We'll see if I can attract the opposite sex with it. Overall: I would think that this Bass will do me until I get good at playing. Will most probably upgrade when I start playing Bass at gigs.
Style of Music: Rock, Country, Alternative

"A BIG (EXPLETITIVE) SURPRISE"
Sound: i actually bought this bass because i needed the flight case it came with.however when i played it through my ampeg rig, i got the surprise of my life!! this epi les paul bass sounded AWESOME!! really great bottom end sound. this bass is excellent for playing "clean" so i now use this bass when i play out and when i need some overdrive i just simply switch to my other bass and hit the stomp box. I RECOMEND IF YOU DONT HAVE MUCH TO SPEND AND YOU PLAY "CLEAN" BASS ALOT (NO OVERDRIVE OR DISTORTION) THEN GO AND BUY THIS!!! I PROMISE YOU WONT REGRET IT Feature: I JUST THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER LOOKING IF IT HAD DIFFERENT INLAYS. OTHER THEN THAT ITS A GREAT LOOKING BASS Ease of Use: THIS BASS IS VERY EASY TO PLAY Quality: I DONT USE THIS AS A BACK UP BASS ITS ONE OF 2 MAIN ONES I USE. I USE THIS TO PLAY CLEAN AND MY TRABEN ARRAY ATTACK TO PLAY EVERYTHING ELSE. TO BE HONEST I REALLY LOVE THE LES PAUL Value: ILL JUST SAY THIS WHERE I PURCHASED IT AT IT WAS VERY WELL WORTH THE PRICE Manufacturer Support: IVE OWNED LOL QUITE A FEW EPI'S AND I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH ANY OF THEM THUS I NEVER NEEDED CUSTOMER CARE OR SUPPORT. IN ENGLISH THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT. AND FOR THE PRICE, ITS SECOND TO NONE The Wow Factor: I DONT KNOW ABOUT THE SEX APPEAL OF IT BUT IT HAS A VINTAGE LOOK WITH A DARKSIDE TO IT Overall: OH THIS BASS IS A KEEPER I WILL NOT SELL OR TRADE IT AND IF IT WERE STOLEN YES I WOULD BUY ANOTHER
Style of Music: rock/metal
