Pros: looks, nice neck, inlays
Cons: weight, pups, input, string spacing, took alot of work to get the action nice and low, price of case, time to arrive etc.

I ordered this bass without playing on one, big mistake.

PROS
the bass has a really nice neck which makes it easy to play. It also looks awsome.

CONS
this bass in its case is 16kg which is way to heavy for me. The pups are cheap and nasty, they are high output so they clip way to easily and nearly destroyed a cheap 10watt amp. they also sound horrible. There is somthing wrong with the input which clips the amp when you plug in and takes alot of fiddling to get to work. It has 19mm spacing, no biggy, i just dont like it. when i got it the neck was bowed and it took alot of work to get the action low, lowering the bridge saddles etc. The case cost $300 and i was sent the wrong one twice.
It still hasn't arrived, ordered it in Jan. [edit: still dont have it, after 13 months]


DO NOT BUY THIS BASS you can get a much better one for the money

Pros: Killer stage precence, quick neck. LOUD
Cons: Input problems, original strings suck!

Great fun bass, excellent bang for buck. High output pups can get abit distorted, cranked on my GK setup it tends to growl abit too much. Input jack can get abit annoying though. Taking back to shop to just get re-soldered and looked after. Heavy when in case but what do you expect for such a big bass. Sits comfortably on knee or while holding. Arm strength will improve too form playing this bass coz the neck is soo long.
All in all, can't complain for the price you pay.
