this turned out to be a far better guitar than I had hoped it would be.
Fantastic Bass May 19, 2010

I have been playing bass off and on for almost 30 years now, but never tried an acoustic bass guitar. I thought that it was time. This bass lives up to all the positive reviews. Fun to play and well built. Pickup is a little weak, but I don't plan to plug it in anyway. I purchased a hard shell case from Musicians Friend and now I am set. Well worth the money.
Pleased! January 15, 2010

For the price, I was very pleased. Nearly everything about the guitar is perfect! The passive pickup allows direct plug-in to a stereo through a 1/4" to RCA cable (also available on Amazon for under $7). The only issue I had with this product is that the fret markers seemed to bulge out of the fingerboard a little...this seems to create a tinny feedback when popping or plucking. I may file them down in the future, but it's not terrible.
Wonderful beginner/intermediate instrument.
Excellent beginner instrument December 22, 2009

I'm a novice guitar player looking to learn bass, since I don't know anyone who plays one. This instrument surpassed my expectations on sound, quality, and factory setup. From the factory, this bass has lower action than my Combo/Selmer acoustic guitar did (and that's not a bass). Intonation at fret 12 is almost perfect on the factory setup, which is a very pleasant surprise to me.
The only quirk I've found so far is a very slight buzz down by the bridge on low E struck hard. I bet the player is the only person who can hear it, though.
A pro might find some faults with it, but I believe it will do well at all the bass playing I expect to do, given my skill level.
Pretty nice bass November 22, 2009
Randy (Deltaville, VA)
I have been playing bass for over 40 years - both electric and upright. I wanted a bass that I could practice runs on without plugging in and playing at bluegrass festivals, campfires, etc. This one fit the bill. It is a very good instrument for the money - good action, decent sound. My only additional purchase was for flat wound strings. The round wound that came with it don't give enough "bass" sound that I need for bluegrass. Otherwise, a really good value.
