I'm pleasantly surprised how nice this bass really is. The build is phenomenal. Everything fits together perfectly. The finish is flawless. The electronics are clear as a bell. And honestly, it's the best playing bass I own. Low action, 0 fret buzz. For a bass in this price range, it's a huge band for the buck. Highly recommended.

Oh yes, ESP is a champion among bass guitar manufacturers. The neck is highly playable and the pick ups have a nice time range.

Product Review
This bass played great for about three months then suddenly whenever plugged up there was a lot of disturbance from the guitar. After then the sound just would not come on, I have been twice to where I got this to get it fixed and have still yet to resolve the issue, still have a guitar that when plugged up sometimes there is no sound and usually a lot of sound disturbance, will not buy this brand again!!

Great Bass

Very well made never had to get anything fixed.
The EQ is great, you can go from metal to funk with just the turn of a nob. If i could i would add....NOTHING! Its perfect.
Sounds however you want it to with the EQ.
It's very easy to play. Neck was great. Easy to adjust while playing.
Again, EQ gives it whatever sound you want.
The Finish is beautiful. Nicest looking bass I own.
Great. Very easy to play.

As with all neck through basses, this bass is solid. Everything seems to be put together perfectly.
I play with C# tuning, and having the strings strung through the back of the bass gives a higher tension to avoid excessive fret buzz.
You can dial in any tone you want with the 3 band EQ.
My only complaint is this thing weighs more than my Ibanez btb 5 string. A decent strap should take care of this though.
I like the lows turned all the way up with some slight mids and highs cranked, and this gives me the growl I like.
The pictures do not do this bass any justice. Simply stunning.
As soon as I took it out of the box and started playing with it, it had some slight fret buzz, but i kind of go for that in my sound, so I was satisfied with the action

decent bass for the buck

Construction is top notch...it arrived to me flawless...beauty of a guitar
Your general opinion of this product.
Overall it's truly a decent bass. Great sound.
It is well balanced, smooth, fast neck. I was disappointed with the pick ups. My other bass is a Warwick with super hot p/ups. These are passive and just that...passive. No low end growl whatsoever. I've raised the pick ups and lowered the action...but nada :( A big let-down for me.
As I said...ni low-end growl.
Beauty of a piece
Action needed serious attention for me. I like a very low action...I play a muted style which gives itself to a punchy, percussive sound.
