    First acoustic bass for this 17 year bass veteran

    This is the first acoustic bass I’ve ever owned. I was excited to see it at such an affordable price point and am not disappointed. It even plugs in and has a full EQ. I’ve only had it 6 hours or so but it sounds nice and plays nice. The action is a little high but I’ve also only played an acoustic bass a couple times in my life. For the price and me not looking for a work horse, just something to noodle with in my office, I’m very happy!

    Don't hope for a great bargain. It's not.

    This is NOT a "full size" bass as described: it is a SHORT SCALE/30". It is NOT "ready to play" out of the box. Mine arrived with several high frets, buffer/polisher burns in several areas that give the paint a hazy appearance in spots, scratches elsewhere, flaking clearcoat at the neck joint, rattling tuners that needed to be tightened, and a D string that had so much tarnish it looked like it had been on a 5-year-old bass, even though mine had a sticker (with glue that left a glob of residue) that said it had been built 20 days earlier. If you are hoping your under-$100 purchase will buy you a great bass for the money, it WON'T. It buys you a very cheaply made short-scale mass-production toy of an instrument. Spend a little more money for an inexpensive used big-name acoustic like the typical Ibanez or Dean.

  • Does its job for a very affordable price.

    It's the absolute cheapest acoustic bass I've found so of course expectations weren't sky high. Still detunes slightly still but that's no problem. I have only one major problem with the instrument: the metal frets are very poorly filed down on the edge of the neck, so, when you're sliding your hand up and down, it's as if twenty little blades stick out just a bit to slash up your hand and finger(s). Once you get past it, it's easy to get on with your playing.

  • TOY

    It's not even worth 10 bucks. Cheap parts. Tuner doesn't hold. Binding fell apart the minute I opened it. Took along time to sand down 3mm off the saddle. Not easy to play. Sound very cheap (I got the Markbass amp so we can blame the amp.) Better off buying some used basses off Craiglist for a little more money, but you got to test drive the instrument before buying. Well, one can't expext too much of a bass that cost 80 bucks, but seriously, DON'T BUY IT.

  • Excellent utility bass

    This is a good utility bass, action is a little high but soft enough to enjoy playing, and at the price you don't have to feel bad when it takes a dive. Haven't tried plugging it in yet, but as with most, that was not the reason I got it. Not really ideal for a beginner said action might turn off a novice, and there were a few minor cosmetic issues but nothing horrible. This is an excellent beater for the price, just don't go in with any false expectations and you will be pleased.

  • Easy to play, small and light.

    If your looking for a first acoustic bass this could be it. It's lightweight, good size, good tone but you will need to replace the strings, I put on Fender 7060's and lowered the rear action and. It sounds and plays great. Cant beat the price.

  • What a deal

    I was looking for a bass I didn't have to worry about if it got beat up camping or whatever and didn't want to spend a fortune, This was perfect !!! Well not perfect. Out of the box the action was high. So I tightened the truss rod, with the allen wrench included, took an 1/8" off the bottom of the bridge and bingo it's a good player unplugged or plugged in. The tuner, included was an added bonus, no mention in the ad. the intonation is almost perfect. What a deal, I might even buy a case but it will probably cost more than the guitar.

  • Awesome bass at a remarkable price!

    Truly an awesome sounding bass at a remarkable price! It has good action with no fret buzz and the tone from the acoustic body is rich. I would recommend this bass to musicians of any skill set.

  • Great bass for the price

    I've been playing for several years and occasionally I meet a young person that's interested in learning to play bass. When I meet someone like that I will purchase a low cost bass for them to mess around with to see if they are in fact interested in going further. So this bass is perfect for this as it's cost effective, stays in tune, doesn't need an amp to practice and does a great job initially. What better way to introduce a new bassist to the world of music and if they aren't interested then no real loss.

  • Great for messing around on, but tone is average

    It can be loud, the action is high for some but for me was fine. It is more the tone that is a bit variable. If you are looking to learn it could be ok if you were not too serious. If you really care and really want 'it'. Then go get a better one, even if you have to work over time and save up for it, that is what builds character. But yes for the money it is amazing that they can bring this.
