excellent 6-string bass 4 the money
Features:
best feature? 6-strings!! low end is kinda weird may need new battery
Sound:
very broad range,but as i said low end is funky,probably just battery
Playability and Feel:
very light weight, kinda neck heavy.maybe different strap, it is a 6-string so the neck is gonna be wider(heavier)
Tone:
with a little knob tweaking u can get a good range of tones
Action:
great,could use very little fine tuning. inotation was perfect on all but the high-c,& it was only off by so little i just left it as is, sounds fine

Great Bass For Price
Quality:
This bass is constructed very well, feels sturdy. The volume and tone controls are plastice and feel a little cheapish but work fine.
Features:
The playability... Hands down!
Sound:
I currently run my bass through a line 6 bass pod and it sounds great.
Playability and Feel:
See features and quality comments.
Tone:
So far a am able to dial up some decent tones with the active controls.
Finish:
Great look, could pass for a bass that is 2 to 3 times the cost.
Action:
Tune it up and play. This bass feels great. For a 6-string it is very easy to play.

I took a chance and purchased it.
Quality:
The bass is very well made and for the price of it who could ask for more?
Features:
6 strings-the tone range. This allows for broader voicing, more chordal voicing and harmonics. I would like to see a better bridge, tuning pots and knobs (the knobs are plastic) without raising the price. What is provided is well worth the cost of this instrument.
Sound:
I think that it sounds much better than my beloved Conklin GT.
Playability and Feel:
Out of the box it was nicely set-up. The action was fabulous. The low "B" was not muddy and not a buzz anywhere on the neck. The neck is wide, the back of the neck is flat and alittle bit heavy; it seems to be a bit heavier than the body but not unacceptable considering the physical structure of the instrument. The bass is much better than an introductory bass. It's playability is diffrent from a 4 string so don't think that it should feel the same.
Tone:
It provides vast potential of tone/eq.
Action:
Very nice! Not a buzz anywhere on the neck and intonation is very good. "C" String is very light and if pulled will lift the string and bridge part off of the bridge base and make a click sound. I don't think it is suited for "Slap & Pop" and maybe my finger are just too big for the space between strings.

I bought this bass as a back up to my main bass, but now I tend to favor this one.
Quality:
For such an inexpensive instrument this bass is built surprisingly well.
Features:
There's really only one feature, the "boost" knob, but it is quite useful.
Sound:
The tone is very "standard" and lacks coloring, but that's how I like it. I feel that a bass with a more flat tone is more versatile. So far I've been able to get all sounds I want just by adjusting the tone and "boost" knobs.
Playability and Feel:
The neck is easy to play and not as clumsy as other 6 strings I've played.
Tone:
Like I said before, the standard tone is pretty flat, but with the "boost" knob rolled on it sounds pretty thick.
Finish:
Over all, the finish was great. There was one very small blem on the upper horn, but otherwise flawless. I however did paint and refinished the neck and fretboard for purely personal aesthetic reasons.
Action:
Straight out of the box the action was definitely playable. I lowered the action a bit on mine just because I prefer my action VERY low. I should also note that lowering the action was very easy, the dual truss rods were very adjustable.
