Overall: Got this bass about 2 mo. ago. came new in the box. no damage from shipping. Researched this bass for about a year. Most people where satisfied with it. And I am too. Great sound for the price. A bit big. But the sound is big to. I have no trouble in a acoustic setting.Clear clean sounds. Neck is straight. Some fret buzz. Replaced the strings. Put on a set of DR Phosphor-Bronze. Wow like a different bass.That stopped most of the fret buzz to. They could improve the electric pickup. But I bought it for the acoustics. You can replace it for better pickup it. It plays well and easy. Not the best 5 string out there. But for the price i haven't found a better bass yet.

Sound: The sound that comes out is good quality. Your fingers gives it a warm sound, while using a pick will give you a bright sound, it also sound good on thump and pop. Feature: As an inactive pickup it doesn't come out of the amp as loud, but it sounds good. Quality: The bass came perfit with no blemishes. It needs polish and wood oil for the body and neck. THe pickup is an inactive (no batterys). Value: Yes.... Manufacturer Support: I have own Deans for years. They are easy to reach. I have a 79 costom made flying V. I never had my guitar repaired on upgraded because of the great sound. The Wow Factor: It has a great sound that you could use playing live or at home or for recordings. Overall: I'v tried other basses either they didn't sound right or they were too high with the same sound...

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

2. We guarantee the lowest price

If we don't already have the lowest price, just send us a link to any legitimate competitor's offer, and we'll beat their price as long as we're not losing money on the deal.

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

Because we have two well-situated warehouses--one on each coast--nearly three- quarters of the US population is located within our two-day shipping zones. Plus, we keep both warehouses well stocked with all the most popular products, so you'll usually get your gear fast without having to pay more for expedited shipping.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
