I love the look, feel, fit, finish and sound of this bass BUT whoever set it up at the factory did a poor job. The action was all out and the adjusters on the bridge were all crooked and out of whack! Once i got that all straightened out including the frett buzz it now plays and sounds great. I really do love this bass. It deserves 5 stars but when you pay this much you would expect that the initial set up would be better when you get it. It wasn't so it loses a star.

.What a great bass. I walked into the music store with my heart set on a six string bass. I saw this beauty and figured to heck with the six, this is better. The neck is wider, but more thin than my other p bass (Squier Classic Vibe 50's). The pickup sticker on it can come off and there is no Seymour Duncan Basslines logo on the pickups. The brass nut assds tons of sustain and the pickups sound amazing. I replaced to stock strings with some GHS Brite Flats and it has the perfect Waters sound. I gave it an eight in features because it only has volume and tone, but what more do you need? The quality is also an eight because the frets were sticking out a bit, but I live in a dry climate, so that's bound to happen. I got it at a great price too (800$). Overall it's an amazing bass. Sounds great, feels great, and it looks great.

.I saw the description on this website. Being greatly influenced by Roger Waters I had to find out more. By the description it seemed to be the perfect bass in my opinion. One day I found one at the local SA shop in Hollywood and had to try it out. The fit and finish on the neck and body qualifies as perfect in my book. Love the sheen and feel! The brass nut gave a sonic plus to open string playing that I could never imagine! The Basslines Quarter-Pound pick up not only delivered the perfect bass sound spectrum but also renewed my faith in passive pick-ups. The black hardware gave it a great overall look and did not detract from the sound. Then came the deal-breaker; the frets were advertised as being "medium-jumbo". They were not. They were the thin "vintage style" that I can respect if I did not play with round wound strings. Those frets don't last two years with my string choice and style of playing, so back on the rack it went. I may re-consider one day, because for the price it is so close to being the perfect Precision bass. For now let's just say I'm sitting on the fence, leaning toward making the plunge. There is every possibility that I will get over myself and just get the damn thing. We'll see.

.This is a remarkable P-Bass. The brass nut and the Duncans make a powerful , punchy p-Bass sound that is a bit different than other P-Basses believe it or not! The neck is a little big for me, but I understand it is exactly like Rogers!
