I absolutely love this bass. I have used it for over 2 years, and it hasn't let me down. I actually bought mine used, and it came with Flatwound strings. I even have a really bad amp that I had to play on, and it still sounds amazing.

i got this bass for my birthday a year or two ago. At first, I was thrilled. It looked cool, it was affordable, and my favorite bassist then (Nikki Sixx) was playing one. I picked it up, and it was extremely heavy! The action was also extremely high, but I was able to get that fixed. These days, I'm playing a '77 Rickenbacker 4001. If your gonna be playing a hard rock/metal style, get this bass.

I've had this bass for a week now, and I've taken it everywhere with me. School, theatre, Civitan, soccer, and just driving around. Ya, I get some weird looks when they see it with me in the car... It's perfect for my style of music.

The only issue I have with this bass is the fact that it's off balance a bit when you wear a strap. Not a problem though. If you're too lazy to hold this guitar up a little, you don't even need to play bass.

This bass is amazing, I can get so many differant tones out of it. Personally i play metal, B.C's are made perfectly for the metal genre of music, but you can still get from jazz, to rock, country, metal. The only problem i see with it is how it hangs with the strap, not a real problem just a bit awkward. All in all its a great bass, well worth the money.

This bass is off the hook. It sounds great, plays great and ill buy one as soon as i can afford it... but wow is it worth its weight in gold. It hangs funny, but you can move the strap.
