J Reynolds Electric Bass- Transparent Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been playing Guitar and Bass Guitar for a couple of years now and have already been through several guitars and basses (I like to collect). Of my basses, this is definitely the best I have had. Now, because my first couple weren't that great, it's not really saying much. However, this bass does give fairly decent tone with a little hiss that isn't too noticeable.

I would recommend this to anyone who is just beginning bass and needs something to get them by until they can afford a more expensive one.

Product Description:
This is an incredible deal for a beginner or workhorse bass. With a double-cutaway body, single split pick-up with two controls, and 20 frets, this bass doesn't leave much to think about aside from the groove. It also leaves less to think about in terms of the price. Celebrate the bargain!

Rogue LX200B Series II Bass Guitar, Candy Apple Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well, I'm in Iraq right now and so I decided to take a hobby up so I said why not bass guitar. I didn't want to get an expensive one in case it was messed up while over here, I looked around Amazon and found that Woodwind and Brasswood would ship to APO address. Being only $119 I decided it was a reasonable risk in getting this bass guitar. I placed my order several days before Easter, and that's where the trouble started (bare with me, I'll get to the guitar).

On the Saturday before Easter I get an e-mail from the company telling me it would be a month and a half before my product shipped. Personally, I feel that's a bit of a wait and e-mailed the company that day to try and cancel the order. I get an out of office response, which I'm cool with.. it was Easter weekend after all.

Monday rolls around and I get a response from Customer service, from the above mentioned company, stating that they would try and stop my order. After 4 e-mails from the company stating that they were trying to stop the order (guess they aren't allowed to have phones at the warehouse) I get an e-mail saying that the item was allready loaded on a truck and that the warehouse refused to take it off just because I no longer wanted it. (silly me, I thought me being the consumer I was supposed to be right) What I found very odd was once I wanted to cancel the order it was no longer going to take a month and a half.

The customer service e-mails me again and says that if I still don't want it I can return it and that they would send out shipping labels to me once I recieved the item (why not send them out with the product?). The stipulation was that if the box is damaged, then they start deducting from my $119 I paid. For those that don't know, packages arriving in Iraq don't usually have the pristine condition that is required for me to get my $119 back in full, much less arriving back in the states in such a condition when mailed from here. I had to e-mail them back and let them know it was not worth the risk, that they had stuck me good this time.

******* On To The Guitar **********

So I ordered the candy apple red varient, opened the "box" and it looked nice. Thought I was getting real lucky.. until...

It was filthy, I don't just mean dusty.. it had some gloopy garbage on the screws that was a mix between dried food and candle wax. It was all over the thing to be exact, but I mention the screws because it was like they purpously put the stuff in them. The fret board looked like it had just been removed from King Tut's tomb. The body had knicks, scratches, even a ding or two.

I spent a good two hours cleaning it up, and I still don't think I got all the goop garbage out of the screwheads.

However, for all that bad it tuned nicely and quickly. I've had no major issues with it at all. It does sound nice, and unless you know where to look you can't notice the scratches and dings.

I would have to say that if I could have gotten this bass from another company then it would have been a great experience.

However take the good with the bad.... I bought a decent beginner's bass for cheaper than most beginner bass guitars.

Not a bad product if you have someone that may or may not follow through with learning the bass. Defiently want to upgrade in time though.

Dean Starter Bass Pack with Edge 09 Bass, Metallic Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I wanted to learn how to play the bass guitar, I wanted to pick up an instrument that was affordable, but would not be substandard in quality to the point that it would frustrate me.

I have really enjoyed learning with this instrument -- and am still enjoying it!I'm not a connoisseur of bass guitars, but I've been happy with the sound on this guitar, and it has been easy to play.I've been playing for about half a year, including weekly "performance" with a praise team group at my church, and I am confident it will be some time before I have "outgrown" this beginner instrument.

I docked a star from this package because, in my opinion, the rest of the accessories that come along with the bass aren't worth much.The amp will work for practice, but doesn't bring enough volume to play in a performance setting without a loud buzzing.I rarely use it.

I still use the gig bag from this package, but it has not weathered well -- another reviewer described it fairly accurately as "thin as paper".Better than not having a bag at all, but it doesn't protect the instrument.My bag (which I am pretty gentle with) has developed several small tears that are slowly getting bigger, including a decent hole by the strap near the bottom... which means that if I wait too long before picking up a new one, either the strap will snap, or the weight of the bass will make it tear through the hole and fall to the ground!

The strap does what it should (no more, no less), and I don't use the rest because I already owned good quality picks, audio cables, and tuners, that are better than what is provided here... the included tuner seems awkward to use.
.................

Summary: It's a good beginner instrument (I still love mine!) -- but I don't really consider the rest of this "value pack" to be worth the expense, IF you are looking for accessories to keep around and use for a while.The whole package is probably worth it if you, like me when I started, are not ENTIRELY sure you are going to be sticking it out for the "long haul" with playing the bass.

Ursa 2 PK RN 3TS Sunburst Bass Guitar Package w/Amp, Carry Bag and Instructional DVD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We ordered this set on Fri, Jun 26, 2009 and it arrived on Jul 1, 2009. I was a bit nervous about the quality for $170 which included $29 for shipping by Fed Ex. We purchased this set for our 10 year old son who is really excited about playing the bass. The bass is beautiful. It seems to be well put together with no defects whatsoever. It was just a little out of tune. His teacher showed him how to tune it with the included tuner. The kit also came with a bag, strap, amp, and DVD. My son said that the DVD was a little hard to understand. The amp is a decent amp to practice with. This is definitely the way to go for a starter set. My son has not put this set down and we do not have to tell him to practice. Time will tell how good the set really is. His teacher said it is a nice guitar and amp. As he improves he should get a better one. This package is a steal. To me the bass is worth the total cost of the package.
