"The Finish"
The finish is not what I expected,it was bright and pretty, but after one year of owning one, just one year, and the finish was tracking badly on the backside. I have a 2005 model that’s 15 years older and has seen more action, but doesn’t have tracking at all in the finish. Playability, and tone was overall decent, and what you’d normally expect from a jazz bass.
