I chose this bass because it had very low price. (It was a disscount). I would never buy this bass again and I don't recommend it to anyone. It was my first bass guitar, and the only thing why I bought it it was the price.
Model Year: 1999
Price: $25000.00 SIT (new)
Where Obtained: Sever Muzikalije
Features:
I don't know where is it made. It has 19 frets, passive electronics and horrible pickups. It's not good for any style.
Playability:
It's difficult to play funk with this bass, because the strings are constantly hitting the pickups.
Sound Quality:
It sucks. If you put light strings on it you can't play it because it fuzzes on all frets. It just sucks...
Durability:
I had no problems with durability, but I had it only 4 years.

Features:
I think this is some canadian stuff that i can`t find on the web. The body is maple and the fretboard mahagony, it has 20 frets(i can`t play a good distrorted solo without 21 and 22), it has volume and tone controls one pickup(you know that splitted in two), precision body, veeeeery bad tuners.
Playability:
It has the poorest playability i`ve ever seen, it brings you a lot of feedback, noise and every kind of sound you don`t want to.
Sound Quality:
I use a Ibanez Sound wave 25, boss DS-1, and ibanez CF-7 with it and it`s hoorible(i`ve played this config. with other basses and it was great), it`s not for playing metal, it may be suitable for some polka,
Durability:
Well this is a good feature i have it for about two years and done a lot of things with it and still no problems
