What is your opinion on SX guitars?

I played a fretless P Bass knock off today and It felt and sounded perfect to me, nice and fat. But I'm not too familiar with SX guitars, or what are the "hot" brands and all of that technical stuff. Is it the same as Essex guitars in the megathread?

The store guy said they were made in Korea. I'm gonna get it tommorow. I'm pleased with it, and it's affordable too. What are your opinions on SX guitars?

I know opinions don't matter, I should go by what I feel and like, blah, blah blah, but I'm still interested in reading your replies. The sx is basically mine anyway, my mind is made up, but please, let me here you're honest opinions....

 

A great fretless bass with classic styling and great sustain!
Beautiful photo flame top with a solid Alder body are the highlights of this bass
Bolt-on Maple neck with adjustable truss rod
Ultra smooth Maple fingerboard
The design of the neck and fully adjustable bridge provide superior action making the bass very easy to play
Fretlines inlayed (no frets!) for user reference.
Contoured back for hours of comfortable play
Split P-Bass type passive pickups, one volume and one tone control
Fully adjustable bridge and non locking tuners
All chrome hardware and three ply pick guard (white/black/white) complete the look
3-Tone Sunburst lets the beauty of the photo flame show through
Width of the neck at the nut: 1 11/16"
Overall length 45"
D’Addario flat wound strings are installed at the factory
Width at the widest point: 13"
Actual Weight is only 8.5 lbs

 

So it would look wierd going on tour with one, huh?

 

I don't know. I really don't know how to hot rod a bass, change pick ups, shave the headers or re-align the transformation cogs, I just know how to pick up a bass and play.

It sounds good, that's all I know, I'm no luthier or mechanic. But keep the replies coming, I have nothing but time right now. So far it seems like XS is a good bass for the money....
