Rate my bass

Im just a teen, i dont really know what i want either
not knowing what you want is a great starting point. any/all options are available to you!

the only people who will not like your bass (here on talkbass and in real life) are people who think that their choices of instruments are better than everyone else's...like they know better = like i tried to imply that a fretless bass is better than any other bass. :D

so far: the advice that "if you like it = that's all that matters" is the best advice because it's always true! (works for basses and friends!) so Drzejzi and pie_man_25 are on point.

so you have a cool bass. what are you planning to do with it? join/start a band? lessons? other? do you have any musical experience so far?

thanks in advance for your answers. :thumbsup:
 
90s Samick with a one piece hard maple neck with scarf-jointed tilt-back headstock, 24 fret Indian rosewood fingerboard and gotoh tuners with a plastic nut. Body is Lauan "plywood" (more like a stack of voidless veneers) and individual ferrule bolts at the join. Body is quite heavy, but helps it balance on a strap. Electronics could not be cheaper - tiny linear pots, thin wiring, no shielding and the pickups have tiny windings internally. Typical bent plate bridge and strap buttons.

IMHO, the best thing about it is the neck - I've found most of them straight and true. :thumbsup:
