    • A work of art
Style: 450CE Color: Sunburst
I’ve been playing bass for about 20 years. I’ve owned several fender electric basses over the years. I avoided acoustic basses because all of the ones I played tore my fingers to shreds within minutes. I recently moved into a condo and wanted something quieter than an amplified electric bass that I could just pick up and play without using headphones. After a bit of online browsing, reading Amazon reviews, and watching YouTube videos, I decided on this one. I happened to find a reduced price open box Amazon Warehouse deal because of a small scratch on the black part near the sound hole (doesn’t bother me at all, especially when seeing it reminds me of how much money I saved), and I can confidently say that this instrument is worth every dollar, even at full price. First, this thing plays like a dream. As I said, previous acoustic basses I played tore up my fingers, but this is comparable to an electric precision bass. I can sit and play for an hour or two with zero discomfort. It’s comfortable to play not only for an acoustic, but one of the easiest basses I’ve ever played. The onboard tuner, while not something that would make or break my decision to purchase, is a welcome luxury. For me personally, the unplugged volume is exactly what I was looking for. I have not played it through an amplifier yet as that was not my purpose for purchasing it, but I do look forward to trying that out in the future, and I am glad to have that option when I’ll eventually need it. I also own a fender six string with a similar pickup system that faithfully recreates the acoustic sound, and I anticipate this one will work just as well. Finally, this bass is just very appealing to look at. The craftsmanship is superb, and I like displaying it on a stand in my living room. If you’re reading this, that means you’re probably considering buying this, and, if so, just do it! You will not be disappointed. ... show more

Great bass but amazon said "it's mint condition. Only the box has damage." When I went through the box it had no manual and it said that it's been refurbished. Not a new dass

    • Unplugged Volume/Tone V.Good
Style: 450CE Color: Sunburst
This bass sounds real good both natural and plugged in. She's got Thump; bottom end you hear and feel. I real loved playing this one except for one thing that's specific to my needs: the neck is a little to thick for my hands. I guess I'm average for a lille below on hand size and finger length. The nut width is fine, just the depth for me. She's much more beautiful in person than any photo I've seen. Bright and colorful. You won't be disappointed. And good strong bass tones to go with it. This bass is an absolute try in this range. Much more bass than the CB-60SCE I tried, but a thinner neck on the CB-60SCE. Good luck several that workfor you. I found a mint Spector Timbre jr that's a perfect fit for my left hand. ... show more

So one day I decided I wanted to teach myself to play bass. I ordered this one based off other reviews. It arrived in pristine condition, has a beautiful, warm tone, and is a hell of a lot of fun to play.

    • There was restocking fee
Style: 450CE Color: Sunburst
The guitar that was delivered to me was not complete with the frets. So every string touched the fret and made a trembling sound. I had no choice but to refund this guitar but they charged me $88 as a restocking fee.

    • Good sound but not durable
Style: 450CE Color: Sunburst
I ordered two of these over a period of time. Love the sound, even more than my Martin. However, neither of them survived big changes in humidity I have. One had bridge separation. The other had extensive neck warping and fret sprouting.
