Liked but..

I never owned an acoustic bass before so when I saw this great deal I went for it. Biggest drawback to ordering online is that most of the time you never get a chance to play it first. Due to repeated problems with my right elbow it had fused itself into an angle. The most comfortable basses are ones with rounded edges on the body, light weight and low neck radius(9.5"). Had to hang it low to play it to have some comfort. I changed the bronze round wound strings to Brite Flats.
Nice sound but not the type of bass I could play on more than a couple of songs. Once it's paid for I'll trade it for something more suitable for my needs. Great Bass. Just not right for me.
Amazing service from my exceptional sales engineer Bart Amburn. Sweetwater is the best.

Just alright

Easy way to get an "acoustic" bass to appease your guitarist. Probably worth $ brand new. Needs a humbucker or something. Also, change out the strings. The set up was great out of the box though. Definitely not bad but could get better for the same.
