- KZKristine Z.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars6 days agoWould buy again!
I love this thing! It’s the perfect size to take to jams and gigs alike when I don’t want to bring a full one. It holds tune great, has fantastic intonation out of the box, and somehow sounds like a full size stand up bass, which I don’t even entirely understand the physics of. But anyway, I would totally recommend for seasoned bassists and newbies alike!

- 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 stars2 years 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.
- SHScott H.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoA Joy to Play!!!
After a set-up and a bit of fret filing, this bass is a joy to play!!!
