I bought one of these babys in 2014 for $500 and im so glad i did. its very well buiilt and sounds amazing . Clear strong low end and i can dial in a nice tone for slapping too. My first 6 string that ill keep for many more years! Glad to see a good review on it. cheers!
I just bought like new/used one a few hours ago. I'm glad I did. It's a great deal for what you're getting. It's probably the best bang for your buck for "cheaper" 6 strings imo 🤙Thanks for the review!
Thanks for the review, had the chance of picking one of these cheap and watched your review before deciding to go and give it a look. Excellent Bass, great buy, and thanks for the review.
Thanks for the comment. Yes, they are a great value. I'm not sure if they're made any different these days, but there's a whole lot of features for a pretty small price tag.
I ended up with a esp. it's a special edition, esp b2005. I only got it because I was playing in a metal band with some low tunings. It was the only 35" 4 string I could find at the time. In amazed at how good it is for the money I paid. Esp do some nice work
@Andy I have this same bass and I agree 100% it's a beast of a bass for the price! And I have a ton of basses, I am going to swap out the pup's for EMG's. What I like most about this bass it's built like a tank as you said! I may change the pre amp as well. For a good solid all around bass for the price you can't go wrong. There is a Johnny Lee Long video of him playing this same bass with updated EMG's if you what to check it out and here how they sound.
Sick looking bass , I play 4 mainly , I have a 5 I rarely touch. I like to stay more in the funk/classic rock area and I'm not a slapper yet. However , I could see this being a good 6 string find , I might consider the 5 string version if they got one to just dabble with.
@@andyarnette9220 I just got a cosmic green Fender Player Active and a Sterlin Stingray Ray 34 , so I'm enjoying those atm , but I will say , ESP has some great quality instruments , I got a EC 1000 a month ago , LP style , in flat black with gold trim , damn fine instrument.
Because I've had no good way to record the bass sound. It would sound like crap through the cell phone mic. I'm getting set up now for good sound record and I'll re make these reviews with playing.
Contact their customer support to know.if you can get a custom shop fretless done as per your need.. i don't think there is a general fretless model available
