"Best bass ive ever heard"
Feature:
This Active jazz bass is awesome, treble, medium and bass plus a pan pot for mixing pickups. everything you need. and gigbag!! cmon what else do you need to start playing?

Quality:
this one is like kind of anoying, i had to re adjust some parts of the bass, and the strap locks are kind of loose but you can tight them.

Value:
the price is worth it, like i said just add a badass bridge and you have a really worthy gigable jazz bass and a MIA killer for sure (in my opinion i like Active over passive because of more tonal pssibilities and a more Hi-Fi sound)

Desirability:
its missing something...i dunnno what but when i find it, ill tell you! maybe the badass bridge...

Sound:
the sound quality is awesome! like if you were recording all the time! no noise at all! you can shape your sound as you like! this is like a true winner, ive heard lots of basses such as MIA and MIJ but this one sounds just like them! just add a Badass Bridge for more sustain and you are ready to go, you'll even kill MIA Jazz Basses!

Ease of Use:
It is really easy to use, it is a no brainer! i guess you can figure it out!

Support:
never had to deal with it, but ive heard it sucks...ill give 10 because i've never needed it.

Overall:
Best Mid-Priced Bass!

"What a bass guitar is all about"
Feature:
There are five knobs on this bass (there appears to be four, but one is a top-bottom double). These include master volume, pickup blender (neck to bridge), bass boost, treble boost, and midrange boost (AWESOME for slap-style funky bass). The features couldn't be better. The deluxe gigbag is truly deluxe - highly padded and with all the pockets and zippers.

Quality:
Solid...Heavy...Durable...Beautiful...Sounds great. What more is there to say?

Value:
Spend the extra $ to get this bass. It's well worth it.

Desirability:
You see jazz basses everywhere... but the vintage white color stands out making it very appealing.

Sound:
The Sound on this bass is incredible. The 3 band active EQ lets you do literally anything on it. I was surprised to get such a great tone and sound out of a mexican; it could be better then the american fenders.

Ease of Use:
After I figured out all of the knobs, this bass just did the rest.

Support:
Wouldn't know - never have had to deal with them.

Overall:
I'll keep this bass forever.
