Washburn Taurus Series T12MBL Electric Bass Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought the Washburn Taurus T12 bass to lay down my own bass tracks for home recording, and it has far exceeded what I expected to get for $116. I could tell this was a deeply discounted, quality instrument right away. It's nicely balanced, solidly constructed yet light, has great string action, and sounds fantastic. I would have no problem gigging with this bass, and it looks great too.
There are two knobs, one for volume, the other for tone, and two pickups that respond very well, offering a range of sounds, from low and soft, to a sharp "bite", depending on how the strings are picked. Obviously, if you're a professional musician, you'll want something much more expensive and handcrafted, but for a musician on a budget, the T12 is several notches above other basses I've tried in the same price range.

Dean Spire Bass, Transparent Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well I waited a few weeks to write this review to make sure I have a good handle on this guitar. Let me first say this is a great sounding bass. If you play any rock or even metal, this bass just shines. It has a nice growl to it. Its capable of many tones outside those genres, but that's where I feel this bass excels. The painted neck is a nice thru-neck that is thin and very easy fast. The body is beautifully sculpted and really stands out. I have had many compliments on its shape and sound. The finish is average, it looks beautiful but I have feeling it will scratch easy. The only real con I have to mention is it's a "Neck Diver". I'm not sure if Dean even took the time considering proper strap pin placement. I am definitely going to have to relocate these in order for it to be acceptable to me. So those not comfortable with relocating strap pins beware. The bridge is also an ABM style bridge which I really havent messed with much, but seems a little daunting to adjust. Outside of that I am really happy with the bass, but be sure to replace the factory strings with some quality strings.
