Sounds like an expensive bass, but isn't.

Short on scale (34"), but big on tone, the ESP LTD B-104 Bass is a perfectly priced bass guitar for someone looking for an interesting looking axe that is not too over-the-top. Fat, beveled edges accentuate the basswood body's curves. Combined with the elongated upper horn, deep cutaway of the much smaller lower horn, unique angular cut at the end of the fretboard, shapely headstock, and chrome hardware, the LDT B-104 bass exudes high-class style. But all that flair would be nothing if it didn't have a sound to match. Not to worry because it definitely delivers a mean punch with dual ESP SB-4 pickups w/ESP ABQ-2 2-band active EQ. The B-104 also features a thin bolt-on U-shaped maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, 24 XJ frets, ESP tuners, and ESP DB-4 bridge.

I purchased this bass at a local music store about 2 hours ago and man! I just stopped playing it, only to write a review about how amazing it is! Its much more beautiful in person, the price is outstanding(the store matched MF's price), and the sound is crisp, clear, and defined. And I'm even playing it out of a regular guitar amp! I'm going to purchase a good Peavy rig or something within this week so I'll most likely love it even more by then... BUY THIS BASS!!!

I purchased this bass back when I was 15 and just starting on the instrument, and let me tell you, this is still one of the best basses I've ever played. I now own 3 basses and this is STILL the one I go to time and time again to play shows. I purchased an ampeg BA115HP about 3 years ago and I can say if you pair this bass with a nice rig like that, you'll be able to compete with the best of 'em out there. my guitarists play on 5150's and this thing cuts RIGHT through. BUY. THIS. BASS.

ESP does it again

The Good Tone is phenomenal for such an inexpensive bass, The neck is blazing fast and the electronics are perfect, the active EQ gives You a tonal range that You can't get with passive basses.

The Bad Only has one volume so You can't play with each pickup separately, but not a big deal.

Other Thoughts I don't know why MF has "short on scale" listed on the site as that's standard scale. The purple is a little brighter then what is pictured, so the B-104 actually looks nicer in person then on the site. The strings blow (too bright) so You may want to change them. Mine required ZERO set up out of the box other then a quick string change Simply put, active electronics, wicked fast neck and great tone make this a need to have bass.

This bass is absolutely worth every penny. I find myself going to it more than American made basses sometimes. If you want a lightweight bass with a super thin neck and some growl, this is the way to go. The only reason it's not 5/5 is some neck dive. But it's so light that any good strap will negate that.
