ESP LTD B-206SM 6-String Bass Spalted Maple Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was searching for an affordable bass guitar that "had the look" and more so THE sound and this was the best pick.
I normally depend on customer reviews before making a purchase; there was none for this item and am i glad i took a chance and bought this one. I bought it a lil over a year ago and have had NO regrets since.
It has a PERFECT finish; It is very sexy and smooth. Just by looking, feeling and playing this bass one word comes to mind - Q.U.A.L.I.T.Y!!!..I was cautioned against buying a guitar online, but with this you won't be sorry.
I am a female with this 6 string bass guitar, ofcourse it makes me look good. When am practising at nights at home i get no complaints from neighbours, even though when am playing i "tend not to use the low volume" (if you know what am saying); they love it too. I honestly gave this item 5 stars because i can't honestly find a fault with it. So, if you are looking for an affordable bass guitar you can't loose out on buying this, if you do then i guess you are just picky.
Percfect bass, get one!

Dean Edge 6 String Bass Trans Amberburst Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love my Dean Edge 6. But I can't play it. And I can't get strings for it.
It's a beautiful instrument. The fit and finish is quite good for the price. It sounds great.
An accomplished bassist recommended that I get a six string. That was a HUGE mistake. This bass is a monster, and is no good for learning to play.
The biggest problem, however, is that it is IMPOSSIBLE to get strings for this thing. All of the "Extra Long Scale" strings that I have tried begin to taper just shy of the nut. I contacted Dean and they told me that they string the bass with bulk D'Addario strings and that they couldn't recommend any set that I could buy. They suggested that I visit the nearest dealer . . . 600 miles away.
So, the instrument is terrific, Dean's customer service is WORTHLESS.

Schecter Stiletto Elite-4 Bass Guitar (4 String, See-Thru Cherry) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have played bass guitar for over 30 years and just recently I was at a major music store and had the opportunity to play this bass. I played the most expensive bass guitars they had there (some over 3 thousand dollars). This guitar in my opinion beat them all....
- Sound: Beautiful low ballsy puch to bright high end snap
- Action: Never seen better. You could barely slip a business card under the strings while holding the 5th and 9th frets
- Look: Beautiful.... Attention to detail is impecible
Summary:
BUY IT!

Schecter Stiletto Studio-5 Electric Bass (5 String, Honey Satin) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm primarily a rhythm guitar player at church, but fill in on bass when needed. I borrowed basses prior to buying this one and have played several different models. That said, this is the second best bass I have ever played coming in right behind a modded Peavey Millenium 5ver that was old and USA made.
The Pros:
This thing thunders! The B-string is tight and has great resonance and/or punch depending on your tone selection. The dual active humbuckers take 2 9 volts to power them and they have a decent range to them. They are EMG pickups, so they have their own sound. When I can afford it, I will likely replace those with some hotter Seymour Duncan HBs. The EQ on the guitar has fantastic range and three bands. There is a knob for bass, mids, and treble. All knobs are nice heavy textured brass looking things with a detent so you can tell where "unity" is. The volume knob lacks the detent, but who would want that? The finish has no hard coating which I count as a pro. I believe this allows the wood to resonate more than if you lacquered it up. Some folks think this is a con because it is definitely easier to damage the instrument. Lastly, the instrument is simply gorgeous. The woods are beautiful, and the neck-thru construction is striking.
The Cons:
Good Lord this thing is HEAVY! I usually gig for no more than an hour and it's not pleasant afterwards. I know I know, this is why it sounds so good, I just needed something to whine about. Truly if I have to give it any cons I would say maybe adding a string-thru bridge vs the hardtail MIGHT increase sustain. I say might because this instrument seems to be able to hold any note for well over a minute as is. The pickups don't really "pop" when you slap it, but that's EMGs IMHO.
I paid about $300 for this thing and think that was a steal. I see they retail for $700-$800 and are probably worth every penny. When I was shopping I played everything and had decided to either get a Warwick Corvette RockBass or the new Music Man ripoff, Sterling I think it is. I played this dude though and it was over. This is a fantastic instrument that's well worth the asking price.
