    That's probably a good deal actually, if what the listing says is true. And it may as well be, the English language hasn't been butchered.

    not bad bass to start mod the hell out of it i guess.

    Put a set of decent pickup and a good preamp then it should be alright.

    Consider no name on the headstock so it won't look too bad lol specially if you consider play it live after modded lol

    That looks pretty decent for a stingray copy.

    the Chinese are not good at however is setting up the guitars – so we do it ourselves in our workshop. We check/set the intonation, truss rod and action as well as test the electrics and level the frets if (rarely) necessary. If something’s wrong with the guitar, we’ll tell you.

    This bit here would go a long way to set my mind at ease...if they do all that before it gets to you,that is like getting about 100 dollars worth of service for free....

    Looks terrible IMO. The spacing looks too thin as well.

    You get what you pay for in any case.......

    If you are only playing in you bedroom or your parents basement, you might not notice the tonal difference. This would not be a great gigging bass IMO.
