I'm a long time bass player, been playing since the '70s. Owned a LOT of basses over that time, and own quite a few now. I have USA Fenders, Rickenbacker, Gibson Thunderbird, MM Stingray, etc. This MIM Fender holds up with them all. I actually prefer it over my American Jazz Bass because of the lighter weight. It plays just a nicely, and I love the stock pickups. Very versatile. I bought this on a "used" discount although it's brand new and came with the hang tags still on it. It was meant to be a backup, but it's becoming a daily player. As you can tell, I highly recommend this bass. Save yourself around $1k and buy this "Player" version if you're interested in playing over collecting. I do both, and this is a great every day instrument.
