Mako LPB-1 Reviews

On 2002-09-20, Tracey G. rated this Mako LPB-1 a 4...(2745)


Purchase: I acquired this bass at a pawn shop in san antonio texas. I think I payed $200 for it, and I think I bought it just for the heck of it, I needed a bass to throw around.
Pros: Its a pretty simple bass, 1 piece maple neck, garnet red p-bass style body, single dimarzio p-bass pickup and single volume and single tone control with a string through bridge. I like it because its simple, its very lite, and it has the deepest tones possible.
Cons: Cant find any others, cant find replacement parts, the bass itself isnt worth very much.
Quality: Like earlier mentioned, a real basic bass, maple neck with an alder body and clover type 4-in line chrome tuners. Its a hard but lite instrument.

Review Summary: A great bass for the money, possibly a collectors item in about 50 years! Fills the gap between the guitars and drums, nothing fancy, just wall to wall deep bass tones.
