"Killer looks, Killer sound and Killer Playability!"

Sound: The Sound is great for the kind of band I play in. We'll go from playing Megadeth Holy Wars to a blues jam in "A". Just make quick adjustments and your ready to rock. What I like about it is the separate volume controls for each of the two pickups so you can get a higher gain sound from the bridge or a slightly warmer sound from the neck.... both together Sound good to. Feature: I didnt Actually Buy my F205 from here so I dont know if there would be a difference, but mine came with an ESP deluxe hardshell case which is awesome and very rugged so far. Quality: I've had this bass for over 2 years and it has not failed me yet. My only problem with it is the body is soft (keeping it light-good thing) and it dings relatively easy. Value: Definately worth every penny i paid for it. I would buy again if I had to replace it. Manufacturer Support: Never needed any service except for the usual adjustments, new strings, etc.... The Wow Factor: Mean looking and sounding, I love the design. The design is what originally made me want to buy it. Not only that but with the nice looking EMG-hz pickups and Active electronics make this a bass to be desired. Overall: I pretty much explained my most satisfied points throughout this review, but I will never get rid of this bass. My next bass will either be a backup 5 string for road purposes and/or a 6 string for the extra versatility, but this bass will always be in the main lineup.

Style of Music: Heavy/Death Metal, Progressive Metal, Blues, anything that captures my attention
