Lot of tone variations not so good electronics
There's surely lot's of tone variations for the money. From scooped slap to attacky bridge pickup JB kind of sound. Even thou the whole sound range has a bit of a nazal undertone to it.
Quality wise the woodwork and hardware is all on the money. Tighten the screws and off you go. Neck feels good and the instrument is well balanced.
Electronics and setup is where things go down. Took quite a bit of fiddling to get that neck and action right.
Coming to the electronics, yes there's a lot of it and sadly these pots and switches feel as cheap as they function. One of the switches doesn't actually switch every time the position is changed and tone pot is crackling on turning. Not to mention the uneven feel where's the bass pot is almost too hard to turn and combined volume-tone is loose enough that one turns with another.
Even in active mode there's less volume (with the preamp blue pot cranked up) than in my other passive instruments.
All in all it's a fine instrument with good woodwork and tonnes of tonal options with low grade pots and switches.
