5.0 out of 5 stars IT'S PLAYABLE RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2021
Purchased for a 5 year old granddaughter I was shocked to find this bass with a perfectly straight neck. The workmanship was beyond what I expected for under $200. I have a Charvel 3B bass from 86 and we learn together. The other basses are toys in this price range. Stage playable for adults with smaller hand.... 5 stars.........

About the size of a guitar - light weight - plays great - sounds great - stays in tune (drop D for me) slaps, fingers and pick-rocks well - love the purple paint - I'm a Jackson fan -(Dave Ellefson fan too) - Nice instrument - Well worth the low price considering the great quality. Arrived quick and undamaged.

This little thing is GREAT! I got it for the shorter scale. I have a rick,fender jazz ,a steinburger and many others,but this one is a blast to play. Very nice looking and well made. Shipping was very fast. It arrived 3 days early. No regrets.

Sounds just like the full size bass. The picture shows the difference in size. Easier for short arms gals like myself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for "kids"

I'm a guitar player who went over to the Bass to play in a band. I have a P-Bass which I love, but was having a hard time because of the scale length, as I am used to a standard Les Paul neck. I picked up the Satin Silver Minion because of the low price and I wanted to try the short-scale. I fell in love with it immediately. Easy to play, looks cool and the quality of the construction rates 5 stars. The bands "color" is purple, so buying the Pavo Purple one was a no-brainer for me. My satin-silver minion will be my stage back up and this will be my main. This is a $500 bass with a $200 price tag. Highly recommended.

I was looking for a decent short scale bass to see if I could continue playing and gigging for a few more years. Arthritis and CT in my wrists has made fretting and spanning a standard scale bass inpossible for me. I'm older (OK Old) but have played all my life and wasn't ready to give it up. This purple powerhouse has solved my problem. I'm 6' 200 lbs and even though it's smaller, it doesn't look like a toy. It came out of the box surprisingly good for a inexpensive bass. With a bit of simple setup it is a great guitar. The fit and finish is beautiful and the finish is stunning. The pictures do not do it justice. I took a chance on the purple and I'm glad I did. My beloved P Bass and Ibanez are wall art and this is my main bass now. I tried several short scales before settling on this one. The Squier Mustang Classic Vibe was pretty but I expected more from it's $400 price. The Ibanez Mikro was OK but just didn't keep up with the Jackson and the Mikro seemed smaller and cheaper in hand. Maybe I got lucky with this one, but it's nicer than Basses costing much more.
