History:
Purchase: I recived this fine bass guitar after months of giving hints of what i wanted for christmas. My parents payed $400 for it and a $100 for the custom fitted case that comes with it. I think the got it at The Guitar Center in Dallas.
Pros: When you first see this guitar you instantly want it so bad. It has a Extremly nice paint job(i got black) and pickups are awsome .Its very solid and weight is even. The neck allows very fast solos(not slap) and has a great range of sounds with its 24 frets. The factory strings came with it have lasted a extremly long time(yes the're still on). It keeps in tune very well. i love the reaction i get when i bring it out for poeple to see. Great for any distortion.Theres really not enough I could say how great it is.
Cons: the only bad thing I could say is that when standing up it is difficult to reach the lower frets(but not impossible) and hard case is really big and hard to carry.
Vintage Z Bass Quality: very solid and weight is evenly distributed. great paint job for the price.
the back tends to get minor scratches from playing. i have banged this bass pretty hard(on accident) and still no chips Dean Summary: Great bass to buy for a metal band. No other bass like it. I would give it a 10 if it went that high.
