A very nice little bass to start with, my 11-year-old daughter is comfortable on it and so am I.
Pros: the neck is pleasant and well finished, frets, fingerboard, neck, tuners, nuts, everything is okay, it's comfortable. The body is also very good with a nice well-finished red and the bridge does the job. Quite pleasantly surprised by the lutherie at this price.
Cons: unbalanced bass, the neck part is heavier than the body. The electronics are cheap, the pickups are poorly adjusted, their screws are hard to turn and the screw head strips very quickly, unplayable on arrival. The jack socket is low cost. The strap buttons are tiny, I had to unscrew them and put a washer so the strap wouldn't slip, otherwise replace them immediately to avoid a fatal fall. Natural chorus effect on the E string probably due to the short scale.
Conclusion: for the price, impressed by the lutherie and playing comfort with a beautiful red, but pickup adjustment is needed, change the strap buttons, and if you keep it for a long time, an upgrade of all the electronics will be necessary.
