- EFEmily F.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars1 year agoIt's great!
"Just learned how to play a Marylin Manson baseline on it last night. It's super great. I play it all the time. It's really good and particularly useful for my lifestyle, since I more often have time to use it when I'm traveling." - per person I bought it for :)
- JDJohn D.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars1 year agoFun to play
Happy with purchase!
It takes a bit of getting used to shorter scale and not over reaching notes.
Five stars for customer support (thanks for expediting delivery Ash!)
Having a bit of trouble with instrument being in tune when playing from open lower to upper octave.
Therefore, four stars for instrument not being setup at factory (found card inside case stating instrument was setup in USA by factory tech but not dated or initialed which leads me to believe it was not).
Other than that, very fun to play.

After a set-up and a bit of fret filing, this bass is a joy to play!!!
- JTJohn T.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoGreat Bass
I really like the sound and feel of my Striped Ebony U-Bass. I’m still getting used to the small size but it’s getting better every day. It’s very convenient for practice and for trips.
