I am a guitarist, bought this instrument to have some fun. I strated my music adventure from playing a bass guitar and after many years I decided to buy myself a bass guitar. I am a person who doesn't like to spend his hard earned money unwisely. I spend hours and hours listening to demos and reviews of different bass guitars in this price range and finally found one!!! I borrowed Ibanez gsr 200 from my friend for a few days and after that I fell in love with this one. I wanted to experience something different so I purchased 5 string model. I am honestly very glad I made this decision. This guitar sounds huge, I like the active battery driven equaliser that gives more kick of sweet punchy bass sound. Slap and finger style sound awesome. I cant believe that for that money You can have such good sounding instrument. I like the color too, thin coat of stain and thin coat of satin laquier. Which is great, because the bridge sits on the wood not on the laquier.
pros:
- well balanced, light body
- very thin coat of laquier
- very good machine tuners, stays in tune amazingly
- very good quality hardware, they look expensive, chunky bridge
- lovely pots, great feeling when You turn them
- good pickups (passive)
- overall finish is very good
- sort of basic but very well manufactured instrument
- highly recommended, 10/10 in price/quality ratio
unboxing video :
- for some people thin coat of laquier could be
dissaponitment ( wasn't for me )
- would be great if it comes with a gig bag ( I know price is a factor)
I would buy this guitar again if I had to make this decision again
