This arrived well packaged. Although, you can see in photo 1 that the gig bag was torn right out of the box. In photo 2, you can see that this is a beautiful looking bass with a tiger stripe veneer. It weighed 8.5 pounds. The action was insanely high at over 4 mm. There was a little fret sprout that resolved with a sanding sponge. There was an excessive amount of neck relief. So, through a combination of lowering the saddles and straightening out the neck, I got the action to a comfortable 2.5 mm. The truss rod worked well, and you can see in photo 5 that the cover is the window type that doesn't require you to remove the screws. I appreciate that. The fret work was okay with a few frets that needed to be tapped in to level them. And the falloff after the 12th fret wasn't ideal. The last fret actually was high and needed to be sanded. After the adjustments, the bass sounds very good. The active pickups didn't break up with the volume cranked up. And as you can see from photo 4, there is some shielding tape on the rear compartment lid and I'm not sure if the black paint is shielding paint, but it might be. The potentiometers are dime sized and the wiring is neatly done. The tuning keys are sturdy and tuned smoothly. Overall, this is a good bass that needed a better setup and a little fret work. The finish on the body is well done and attractive. The neck is smooth and comfortable. And for a little over 160 dollars with a current coupon this is a reasonable value for money.
