Hello to all who may come across this review. I have read other reviews
where this bass has gotten trashed on. I have to ask if these people even
know what they are talking about????? This bass is great! The sound is
exeptional, and no amp depricciates the sound. This bass is perfect for
fusion/funk/jazz.....and just about anything else. I have had this bass for
about a year, havn't even had to change the battery. It hasn't given me
any problems at all. My only complaint is the fact that the neck is short.
Only 20 frets and the low B doesn't have the best responce on the 34"
neck. But other than that this bass is great...and it really doesn't sound
that much different from the American version. It looks, sounds, plays
great! I recomend this bass to anyone who wants the great Fender sound
that'll last for years and years, and only get better as it ages.
