This bassis terrible and ive had it for 1 and a half years the bridge knackers up after a few months, the screws then start to fall out and the strings are really bad. It is fairly easy to play, but it sounds rubbish. Really Bad Quality on all aspects of it. I wouldn't pay a tener for this> Do not buy!
