As a guitar player I always wanted to play bass! I had one used, sold it and this is my first new one. I didnt want to spend much, plus I love the pink color! Also I didn't need all these extra knobs that many basses have. The two volumes, tone and the EQ boost is more than enough for me.
For the price the quality is great, the paint is flawless and it sounds very good to my ears! It is also very comfortable.
Obviously the bass needed a serious adjustment immediately but this is common for almost all new instruments.
