In my 7 years of playing the bass guitar (and the electric guitar for 19 years), and owning a several basses (PJ's, P's, some five strings, actives, passives, cheap ones and really expensive ones) I finally got the best of them all.
It was my desire for a several years to own a Jazz bass - and I got a budget one, just to try it out. Man...
This is really all I wished for and dreamed of!
The price is unbeatable, specs are amazing, finish is so pretty - the bass is amazing! It sounds great, it feels better than some vintage Fender's and other 3-4 times more expensive basses; everything is just right.
Out of the box it was in perfect pitch with a perfect setup, with no flaws whatsoever in regards to the finish, mechanics or the hardware.
I can't be more happy and more satisfied. This bass rekindled my long lost desire to play in just 2 days of owning it!
Thomann's service and price, as well as the Sire's quality, is just out of this world. My next one is definitely going to be P5 Prec bass in Mild Green! Can't wait!!!
I will come back to edit the review if anything changes, but I doubt it will...
