Great short-scale option
I bought this because, on occasion, my hands are not so keen on the gymnastics of moving up and down the fretboard as they once were on a long scale, so I tried a short-scale.
As a lefty, I thought my options would be limited but I'm really pleased I ordered this. Well finished, rolled edges on a comfortable neck and easy to find a good set-up with, it is a quality bass for the money. The body is fairly well-balanced too.
If I was to be picky in one area, the pickups, through a Fender Rumble 500, need a bit more EQ help than a Fender PJ to get the best out of them. Having said that, I played my bass straight into an Ampeg Rocket 110 (my amp for small sessions now) and the pickups had tone to spare so, depending on your amp set-up, you may well get a tone very quikcly that you can work with.
Recommended.
