Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? This bass feels like I can drop it from a 10 foot ledge and it will still work. It feels that way, though I'm confident it doesn't work that way. This bass is very sturdy in your hands. Features What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could? Not too many features, but the push\pull knob that switches from single coil to the humbucker let's vary my tone in a great way. The tuning pegs on this bass are fantastic, they are real precise and strong. You won't be needing to tune this bass over and over and over again. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? I felt the tone can be changed from dark to bright, though it is very mellow naturally. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? My favorite colors are red and black, so this in itself was amazing. But the nice and dark smokey finish is something out of this world, I love it.
