Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Active Musician

Reviewer's Play Style: Pop-punk/metal

I've been playing for almost 10 years and everytime I would walk into a music store, I would immediately go to the expensive basses (I own a Fender P and Jag bass). Well this time I happened upon this bass, played it, and was blown away! I purchased it right away. It has an incredible range of tones from the active pickups (not just a preamp like other fenders), it can go from super gritty to big n thumpy and everywhere in between. The finish on the sunburst model is beautiful and the neck with ebonol board looks and plays incredible. It beat my Precision and Jag for main bass. The moment you get a chance, try this bass. Even if you don't buy it, just playing it will make the trip to the store worth it.
