I had one if these years ago and I was a jerk for getting rid of it..however,..today I pulled the trigger and went and picked up a brand new one.. Previous one I had was used when I bought it but still in awesome condition. .now I'll tell you bout y new one ..!!.. Tyler my sales rep. Was awesome in assisting me thru the trying it out process.. And I'm particular about Action on my basses.. He took his time and set it up real sweet..this Axe is a Lifetime instrument. Any style or tone can be tuned in. The eq is great. I highly recommend any level bassist to sit down and try one out. I grabbed this 5 string and can't put it down.. A beast of a guitar.. Thumbs up Esp

Great bass for the money. ESP LTD quality is always great. The guitar comes setup and you can play it in standard tuning right out of the box which is nice. Always stinks to get a guitar and then have to spend an hour or so adjusting string height and checking intonation. Fretwork on the bass is nice. Slight noise from the bridge pickup when you have the gain up. Not terrible just noticeable. Will probably replace the pickups eventually. Other than that this bass is ready to go. Great playing, great looking. Worth the cash.

I tried all the basses in the store, This one I kept going back to. I love this bass. It feels good to play. I've been playing guitar and bass for years, and one thing I've learned over the years the instrument has to feel good in your hands. I've own jazz basses, and I love this one. I just didn't like playing the fretless jazz bass. Hey that's my thing. Give this bass a chance and I know you will love it.

I bought this bass to upgrade from the 4 string starter Ibanez I had got off of CL. From the moment I picked it up to play it I knew that it was perfect. It plays great, great tone. If you're on the fence about getting this Bass just know that i got it and absolutely love it.
