Purchased this bass new off Ebay and am very happy with it so far, I,ve just had it about a week. you might have to play around with the strings and bridge a little to reduce string buzzing. it has vary good sound when plugged into amp.
Arrived earlier than expected, perfectly packaged, intonated well, everything worked. The case is a bit cheap but ok for what it is and I already had a better one for it. I suggest having flat wound strings for the true British 60's sound.
I bought mine used, mint condition. I absolutly love it. Great fit and finish, amazing tonal quality even with the round wounds that were on it. This so much reminds me of my old Framus Star Bass, thin neck, hyper light, hollow body. I did have to adjust to the on-off switching choices on the volume control plate. I thought it was faulty at first, easy to see how that one reviewer thought it was. Anyway don't ponder.....just hit buy!
The pic guard needed to be replaced because the plastic decorative cover was peeling up at 2 of the edge's. I called the phone number found in the case and after sending a photo immediately received a replacement. This was purchased for my 9 year old son who has been playing bass for the past year. It is light and the neck is thin so it really fits his little hands. Sound quality is good. Finish is good. Case is just fine. From everything I have read I might change out the strings sooner rather then later. I have to say I'm pleased with this purchase so far and the service I have received. Peter
