I bought this bass over a year ago and I'm very happy with the look of it. The sound is also quite okay for the price.
About a month ago I managed to let the bass fall on the street. The bass was inside of a soft bag, but still : with the shock and the tension of strings the neck broke, very close to the body. It was totally my fault that it fell, but I was surprised to find a wooden piece inside of that broken neck : as if the bass was already broken and repaired in that very spot before. But apparently this piece of wood is added on fabrication to reinforce the neck, which is only superficially attached to the body. Long story short, I had to replace the whole neck by a luthier, and now the bass sounds even better :)
