Pretty Good

Experience w/product: I have used it

Reviewer's Play Style: Jazz, Rock, Grunge, Alternative, Funk
This bass is a pretty good bass. I play it in our Jazz band at school, and the tone is perfect for the job. It plays very smoothly and doesn't hurt your hands as much as some basses might. One of the tuning keys is missing, but it can still hold a tune pretty well. It doesn't need to be tuned but maybe once every month or two. Overall, it's an okay bass.
