I got this Bass for my birthday, and it awesome! The Cons: 1. When you get your Bass you will probably want to change the strings, mine were not very good and they did not stay in tune. 2. The strap does not stay on very welll so you probably want to buy a new strap too. 3. The amp can be noisy at times, but you can barely hear it when your playing. The Pros: 1. The Bass is very durable, I've dropped it twice and it hasn't had any problems. 2. The DVD is very helpful. 3.It comes with alot of great extras. Overall this Bass Pack is great, and it's perfect for the beginning bassist. If your not a beginer I highly reccomend a Fender Precision Bass.

This is a perfect pack if you want to begin playing the bass. The Bass itself has a very nice sound, strong and heavy. The amp, is more for practice, so you might consider upgrading it, the accesories it comes with are good too. the strap is very comfortable, the tuner is very simple and easy to use. comes with different color picks, cable though is a little bit shot, but is also for practice as the amp. overall is a very very good bass to begin with.

For this price you cannot beat this pack. The amp is great for a small practice combo amp. But now the bass! It's got a pretty sweet sound for the price. I absolutely love it and I've played some high dollar basses. I bought this for my nephew and I almost kept it for myself!

I purchased the package for my teenage son and he loves it starting playin tabs right away.
