This guitar has a good strong tone and looks great. Feels good to play at an affordable price

I actually haven't got to spend much time with the bass yet. I put in a few hrs with it the first day and it sounded good. The strings are pretty rough to the feel but I also have my preferred brand so I bought a set and went to put them on. I noticed the fingerboard was completely raw and untreated. So I figured I would scuff it up with some fine steel wool , a pretty standard way to clean off fretboards and polish frets, and seal it up. Immediately some of the grains that were not filled ...

So I figured I would scuff it up with some fine steel wool , a pretty standard way to clean off fretboards and polish frets, and seal it up. Immediately some of the grains that were not filled turned gray from the dust anf were impossible to get clean. So I spent the next few days sanding the fingerboard down to get the dust out of there and then sealing the fingerboard to hopefully keep it free of dirt and grime. And hopefully now the next time I go to polish frets or clean off the board nothing will stain it. I also had an extra pickguard that had some modifications but when I went to put it on it didn't fit. So I don't think you can find a replacement pickguard for these with out modifying one. So I have the same concern about the bridge but I haven't got that far yet. I would love to write another review after I've had some time with it. Some routes on the inside were pretty rough but I was able to clean them up with a wood knife. So we will see. I have high hopes but so far my classic vibe squier is still my favorite bass.

Overall it is a great beginners guitar which can be gigged with in an extreme emergency. The neck needs to be sanded it needs truss rod and intonation adjustments. The sound is decent except for the fact it doesn't hold a tune for very long. There are 16 screws holding the tuner keys to the headstock which were all loose and 4 of the 16 were stripped . In this instance you get what you pay for , no more no less.

The upgraded pickup and nut are a nice touch. The tone is what you expect from a wilkinson pickup but the only downside to this bass is the neck is thicker than their other bass models. I would not recommend this bass to anyone with small hands. Like I said though the bass has a much better tone than the ceramic pickups they use in the other models. This bass also feels more like a bass in wight from the better woods the used in the body as well.
