Feature:
The machine heads and the pick-up's seem adequate although I'm sure there are better of both out there. I've read in some of the ratings that the knobs come off or get loose and I agree with someone who said "use your allen wrench." I can't see anyone treating an instrument badly enough for the knobs to come off anyway.
Quality:
Everything seems great. It looks good and plays good. I can't see any reason for anything to break. As for the road, you had just better have a good case.
Value:
The price was the best!!
Desirability:
Mine is baltic blue. IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!
Sound:
I can't find anything wrong with the sound. I'm using it with a peavey Basic 112 also purchased from Zzounds and it sounds great to me. I use to play a Gibson bass in a country band and I don't think the Gibson sounded or played any better. I now play in church only except for practice with the stereo and I think it's what I was looking for. I'm using 8's only because I think that there has to be a superior bass somewhere.
Support:
Haven't dealt with them
Overall:
It suit's my needs. I don't think I will be looking for another bass for quite a while. If it were stolen or lost I think I would buy another.

Feature:
exactly what I'd expect, 4 tuning pegs, a neck, a body, a tone and volume knob, ect. it's got exactly what a bass should have and nothing it shouldn't.
Quality:
Not a single problem with it.It's a godsent bass, if you're looking for a new bass and know anything, get this one, the price is better than the fender versions and it sounds the same (thank god fender makes squires). Also this bass'll take a beating, I've got some clumbsy friends and a little brother who has little respect for my posessions and it's still working, and still looks great.
Value:
Superb Value, not a problem with this bass, and I've played an array of different basses. This is my favorite.
Desirability:
If I didn't want it I wouldn't own it, it's worth double the price if not more, and I know people who covet this bass.
Sound:
The sound is great, sweet, and clear. I've had no problems with the sound, the pickups are really sensitive. I'm using mine with a Hartke kickback 15 (120watt bass amp) and it sounds great, with my settings sounds alot like peter steele's bass in my opinion.
Support:
Never had to deal with 'em so fender doesn't even need them, they make quality equipment that doesn't just break down.
Overall:
The only thing I would do right now is buy a Jazz bass to supplement it and make sure I can do anything I can imagine.
