Sound

Sound really great, compared it to a real usa fender p special and it sounded even better. Real bottom end and real treble and mid trough jazz pup. No noise, except for bad groundloop on my chamber. Dark and warm sound. Really versitale even trough a big muff.
Great for live use.

Used and abused it.
Hardware is extremely solid.
Paint to last.
Good tuners and massive bridge, I mean damn.
Never had to adjust a thing.

Great bass comparing to other high Q brands.
If it were stolen it would replace it. But I think this one is so special, that I am never going to get rid of it.
It as gifted to me by a pro bassplayer. Who playes 10K basses.
So he gave it to me for small price and I've been old that it sounds amzaing. I agree, and it turns heads when playing.
