ESP LTD B50 Electric Bass

Feature:
Not much to it. But it's a bass for god's sake. You don't need much. The knobs are quality and look cool. The tuners are nice and tight. The bridge is quality. Good deal.

Quality:
The bass is BEAUITFUL! It looks like a much more expensive bass. It's sexy as heck and the finish is perfect. I couldn't be happier with the looks of this bass!

Value:
I would say that the 2 bills that I paid for this was totally worth it. I am tempted to buy another just to have in the closet to give away at a show or something. I play with more expensive gear, and have been disappointed many times....NOT with this one.

Desirability:
I can't wait to play this in front of women! It's sexy, sleek and very very cool. Much cooler than a woodgrain bass or some plain black thing.... I HATE the look of Fender basses---I think they look cheap (unless it's Sting's '59) so this thing is a nice change. It's great!

Sound:
Just got this out of the box a few hours ago. I plugged it in, gave it a quick tune and have been playing non-stop for the whole time. It sounds GREAT. Not as deep and thumpy as my stilleto, but it sounds very comparable to my Ibanez srx500---Good tone. I did have to adjust the bridge slightly, but that's no biggie. It took two minutes. The strings are ok. I will jam some DRs on there and we'll be fine. I bought it because I had heard so many good things about ESPs and wanted to see how their under $200 models compared to Ibanez before I invested more. I will probably use this one for a few weeks and see how it goes....but I gotta say, it sounds great!

Ease of Use:
Do you know how to play the bass? This is a breeze. Is this your first bass? I would say that you can learn on this nicely. The neck isn't too wide. The bass feels stout but not crazy heavy. It's got good balance (unlike an Ibanez which always feels neck heavy). I have killer expensive straps so I can't tell you how it would feel with a cheap strap, but it's pretty comfy.

Support:
Haven't had to deal with them

Overall:
I am sure I will be buying another ESP in the future. Afterall, one can't have too many basses right?

Feature:
The entire guitar feels very solidly put together, and with high quality materials. My only gripe is that one of the knobs has gotten a little bit loose after a year of constant use. Even then, it's perfectly usable. Compared to basses priced even four times as much, this bass feels very quality.

Quality:
I bought this for my beginner's bass, and probably do 1,001 things that you *SHOULDN'T* do to your bass, and it's taken everything in stride. It's even survived a move from Seattle to New York in it's cardboard shipping box and didn't even need a tune when it arrived. Very solid.

Value:
I'd say this is the best bass guitar you can buy in it's price range.

Desirability:
I wish ESP would offer the B50 in a few more colors, although the glossy black I ordered it in isn't ugly in the least. Not the most aesthetically pleasing bass, but definately not ugly. All personal preference, but I'd say it's quite smexy.

Sound:
This was the first instrument I've ever owned, aside from playing relatives and friends various guitars and pianos, and from what I've seen this has a very solid, whole sound. Incredibly good for the price, but even setting that aside it has a terrific sound all by itself.

Ease of Use:
Very easy to use. Maybe a tad on the heavy side compared to some others, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. An excellent bass for beginners to experts.

Support:
Haven't had to contact anyone regarding problems or complaints because there haven't been any!

Overall:
100% satisfied with my purchase.
