Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Bridge is solid, tuners feel smooth and even. Pots are noise free and firm. Overall fit and finish is outstanding.
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 fret work is really well done. It has a graphite nut. It has a 35" scale not 34, so drop tuning feels better.The only strange thing about this bass is the lower body strap button is offset to the top.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
To me the EMG pu's sound full and bold. They are highly adjustable w/2-band eq and blend control. A 3-band w/mid would be even better. Pu's, preamp, strings, action are all personal preferences. This Bass especially for the money needs nothing changed. It plays and sounds like a quality instrument. I can't say the same for some Basses I have that cost 2-3 times as much
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
The Aged White, with binding on body, neck and headstock look fantastic. The pictures don't do it justice. Body and front of headstock are glossy. The neck has great satin finish that feels great to play.

The EQ and blend knobs allow you to get everything from punchy bright, through thick, heavy and deep.

I don't think you could find a better made bass anywhere in this price range. Schecter builds a kickin' bass, and AMS delivers the goods, Thank you AMS!

I love the weight balance, tone, feel of it, and it looks like artwork. I have owned a Gibson EB2 hollow long ago, and i wouldn't change anything on this bass, I love it!
