I bought this from a guy for $150 because his son didn't like it.His son(jazz player) raised the saddles to max in an attempt to get a clean sound.It was unplayable when I got it.I lowered the action down to playable and it sounded like crap.The stock strings are way too bright and buzzy so I swapped for thinner gauge flatwounds and it remedied that problem.It took me some time to dial it in but I am happy with it now.If you are a metal player with a fat amp you might like the strings but good luck trying to play clean music.I will agree with what others said about the low B being muddy and unusable but after the switch to flatwounds the low B is audible now.The electrics in this are only mediocre or less but after some adjustments with the pickup heights I was able to get an acceptable sound.A pickup/pots upgrade is needed if you want the low B to be at its' best.As an entry level 6 string bass this would be ok if someone sets it up for you correctly but I would recommend you get a 4 string if you are an absolute beginner.I would not call this a high end bass but for the price it is damn good considering some of the other junk out there in the same price range.

Great first 6-string

I bought this at a local music shop after seeing it on musicians friend (got it for the same price and didn't have to wait for it to ship) and it is absolutely fantastic. The tone is very shape-able from PA's to guitar amps, and sounds very legit. The neck is VERY easy to play and fast. Anyone looking for a fast neck for tapping/sweeps will be keeping this guitar for a while.

Great 6 string

Overall:
i played this at a local music store and i tell you what it blew me away. the phat eq sounded amazing. i almost got it but went for another ibanez with a little bit better tone options(soundgear sr305mw). the reason i went with it was because i needed its tone and its my new number one bass, but the next bass i buy will definitely be an ibanez and it will probably be this 6 string gio.
