Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Great quality from a strong name in guitar manufacturing Features What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could? The bass itself, the amp, the tuner, strap, etc. I would maybe add a battery for the simple fact that people like to play with stuff right out the box. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Tone is variable, but it seems moldable and should get better once I figure out what the heck I'm doing. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Awesome! I've wanted the blue finish on my J-Bass since I first saw them
