Feature:
This is not a made in America bass guitar but the bass is solid. Maybe too solid as it is a bit heavy. Better get a comfortable bass strap. The bass has three switches for a variety of tones and it is not that hard to find your tone.

Quality:
Yes. I purchased a return from ZZounds and the fit and finish were flawless. Anyway, I don't need a specific name on a headstock. I need a tone that I can use. This bass may be a bit heavy but you really don't need another bass. Check your tone, and not the headstock name.

Value:
Yes. A good value. If you want and have the cash, buy the American version. This is a very good playing bass.

Desirability:
I don't care about sex appeal. I don't care about a name on a headstock. I care about tone and if a bass meets my needs. Afterall, a bass is a tool to get to your goals.

Sound:
Many different bass sounds can come from this bass. I must have spent hours yesterday playing with the three switches. Also, I added a sustainer effects pedal and it was an amazing sound. I play in a church band and can get the definite tones I want and will add my sustain pedal this Sunday for the worship songs.

Ease of Use:
It is not that hard to find your tone.

Support:
I have not needed support but give it a 10 anyway. The bass is made with care and the support service personnel probably have the same attitude.

Overall:
I may buy an American version because I want another color selection. Until then, the blue color bass meets all my needs and more. Now, I need a bass amp to make it better. What ideas do others have?

Feature:
This thing is great! The included gig bag is top notch and provides ample protection for the casual gigger. I figured I'd eventually get a hard case, but now I don't see the need (unless I start touring...).

Quality:
It's excellent! There is NO NOISE generated from the pickups, knobs or switches!! The feel /balance and fit and finish are fantastic. -seriously, I'm not a salesman.

Value:
NO DOUBT a 10...if not 15!! My bandmates and I were blown away by this thing. It sounds great, feels great, looks great...what more do you want?

Desirability:
This is a VERY conservative 8. I got the Sunburst with chrome hardware and it's beautiful. And INSPIRING --I can't wait to pick it up again. The only bass I'm more attracted to is the US made version of THIS BASS (which costs more than twice as much)!! So, if price were a factor in this category, I'd give it a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10.

Sound:
I just love this bass. It's sound really cuts through! And it's so flexible; you can get P-Bass sound, Jazz Bass sound and everything in between (or even beyond). With selections of active /passive, single /double coil, front /rear /center on the US made G&L pickups there is virtually no tone you cannot get...it's amazing! It's the best sounding bass I've ever played and I'd give it a 10, but I have to leave something for the American (hand)made version (which I intend to buy in the future). I'm sold on G&L guitars. One word: Quality.

Ease of Use:
So EASY to play. I used to struggle to be heard with my previous bass guitar (an Ibanez BTB400 series), but I plugged this thing into the same setup and I can finally relax and just play. The strings are so easy to control and there's no slop! Again, I'd give it a 10, but I have to leave something for the American (hand)made version.

Support:
Haven't dealt with G&L directly, but from what I've heard, I don't anticipate any problems should the case arise.

Overall:
--I am seriously blown away by this instrument. I can't believe you can get a bass guitar of this quality for this price! --If price is a consideration AT ALL, BUY THIS BASS! You will not be disapointed! If price is NOT a consideration, buy the US made version of THIS BASS! I did a lot of research, played several basses, talked with local musicians and bass guitar experts in Seattle and bought this bass as a result...and I couldn't be happier with the choice.

Feature:
an owners manual would be nice... I have had to igure out what the switches do by trial and earror. I bought this one as as "blemished" model but it came in beautiful, with the only blemishes I could find some bubbles in the finish.

Quality:
Astounding. I have owned a lot of basses, and only the Music Man is close in quality.

Value:
A professional could play this instrument at a gig and only one or two people out of a thousand would know it cost less than $600, and they would be the ones that study music store catalogs. No one would tell the difference, based on the looks or the sound, from basses that go for $1000 plus. If I could paly two at once, I'd buy another one.

Desirability:
I would get another one if I could lay two at once, but really...

Sound:
If you want a very bright sound with distinct overtones and all the punch you can handle this is the instrument. The sound is amazingly full and every part from the bottom to the top is right there in your face. If you play this with a band and suitable amp everyone will hear the bass all the time. It isn't right for everyone; it takes an experienced player to control the fret noise and no combination of tone controls will make this sound right in a dark or muted bass part.

Ease of Use:
This means the ease of use is perfect for more experienced players. For me, it took a few days. Mine came set up very low and buzzed the first time I played it. But that was because I was used to playing my old Fender set up much higher. I soon came to appreciate the quality of the instrument, the speed of the neck and fingerboard, with excellent tone as long as the correct light touch is applied. Very fast and clean with the right touch on the frets. FOr beginners, I would recommend getting flatwound strings and setting it up higher- most of the tone would still come through, the fret noise would be reduced, and there would be no need to move up to a better bass when the skills improve.

Support:
the website should have the user manual for download.
