I did a lot of research before buying a pro series bass (GPS - german pro series) these basses are made, handled, built whatever you wanna call it by the same guys who make the full german Warwicks in the same factory under the same strict quality the german basses have. this bass is and has the full tone and feel of a german. I have been playing Ibanez sound gear for a long time and I and the band could never figure out why everything sounded muddy and sloppy. this bass alone with no tweaks to the amp cleaned everything up and everything was crystal clear. the growl this bass has is unheard of. you WILL NOT REGRET BUYING THIS BASS.
