    It is the product brand of Inyenvina Guitars, a Korean OEM producer like Cort and Samick. Hadn't heard about them for a while, apparently they now manufacture in Vietnam.

    Well I must say for being a cheap bass sold on Amazon it sure beats a lot of basses that I have owned in the last 40 years they are doing something right

    Nothing special, two humbuckers or soapbars, body - Ibanez type. Woods hard to say from pictures. If you like the sound and prive - have it.

    Ugly? I think it’s way cool. If the guy wants ugly, I’ve got his ugly right here. Anyone can talk about it. It’s a blast at Halloween gigs...
