Intonation not very close across all strings/bridge easily adjustable/typical Fender style good weight. Control cavity not sheilded but quiet/scaled pots.
Overall first impression very playable/well made. Tight neck to body joint cavity with Picup cavities tight too. Nutcut hieght very good to string gauge.
Pleasantly surprised/very gig-able with fine setup!
Could be converted easily to a piccillo bass future.
Cost/quality/playability/fun factors bassically B+.
Bag & accesories very cheap/minimal, buy a strap!
Will use RV'g/camping with a battery Joyo Bamp.
Fantastic durable versatile playable portable bass.
Overall rating 1-10, easy solid "8" (one I received).
Future "fretless/5'r/8 string'r priced accordingly??
Need string suppliers for variations beside Mako5.
Thx Glarry, Keep'm coming, Cheers??
