The first thing that caught my eye about this bass was its look. This is the most beautiful thing I think I have ever seen! Anyway, I got it for Christmas, and I am truly amazed at what Fender has done with this price range. This bass is really a great bass for beginners or experienced players. It's got that great jazz growl. It even sounded decent in my little dinky Peavy 8" microbass combo. I play normally through a Fender BXR100, and this bass just cuts through everything. The only problem I've found is some fret buzzes, but otherwise, its a superbly well made guitar.
