My first bass. Got my ignition back at 2018, a '16 model IIRC. The tuners are wacky, the intonation never sounds good beyond the 12th fret (pretty hard to adjust the saddle to perfect tone), and painfully high actions. It got that classic Mccartney-ish tone, and surprisingly sounds well at small gigs with PA. Very lightweight bass with such a small scale (with a tolerable amount of neckdive). Stilll love it.

Got mine 2 years ago, MII '10. Solid bass

My first 'Ray. Slab body, with SLO neck. 2 band EQ with classic/vintage stingray vibe to it (tinted neck/aged butterscotch finish). However, If you looking after a better budget/cheaper mod plaform, go with ray4 instead.

Well, I'm a bassist so I can't tell much about tone difference or whatsoever, other than hi output bridge humbuckers or 5 way switch on a cheap stratocaster copy. What i can tell is, that this guitar is awesome for beginners, and versatile enough for punk rock, reggae, or funk. and stood well against competitors like Squier Bullets, Ibanez GIOs, or lower end Yamaha Pacificas. Pretty color options, and perfect for first timer guitarist and first guitar for kids. I would buy another for a Christmas gift to my niece.

Fairly cheap with great audio quality. 2 input, 2 gain knobs and an output knobs, No additional drivers needed. Just plug, run any progam and you're good to go. Straightforward without any tinkering or trickery. Suited with any programs avaiable now.

Don't get fooled. This 25 watt combo could properly shake a living room. perfect for beginner that looking for "my first amp", to a hobbyist for a living room or bedroom amp. Even by professionals for practice. Trully worthed for it price.

If you're looking for a cheap micro bass amp with loud volume, as well a low end that feels good then this is the amp for you. with a fairly affordable price and good quality, this amp is the best in its class. Very useful for playing at campfires or busking and quite loud when pitted against an acoustic guitar. No need for plugging, just keep a pack of 6 AA batteries and you're ready to go. Also comes with a 9v adaptor cable.

Nice marshall tone, and works quite well with bass guitar for distortion. and also, nice for decoration.

I'll be honest. This string is known for its clothesline like stiffness and sandpaper like roughness. however, its legendary tone cannot be matched by any brand. and as an Indonesian and its extreme tropical climate, plus my toxic sweats, stainless steel is indeed the most logical option. fresh or dead, still loud enough to defeat any string. trust me, I've been using Ernie Ball Cobalts, Elixir Coated, and D'Addario chromes, or Dr pure blues, and they all crumble to rust. And the Rotosounds? Well in 3 months still crisp and fresh, 6 months merely some dirty stains, then 2 years already and it hasn't rusted either. The only close second was the ErnieBall hybrid Stainless Steel Slinkies.

if you are a diehard Rotosound user like me, and can't find a set of "the 'ol roto oranges", then this set of Stainless Steel Hybrid is the best alternative or a more modern option. I've been using them on my SBMM 'Ray24 for 2 years, and (until now) no problem after 2 perfect sets. Bright stainless steel tone, and somewhat less stiff, yet a bit smoother than rotos.

Accidentally stumble upon this Argentinian brand. Found a set of a nylon tapewounds for less than 30 buck, why not? Put them in my beat up Hofner ignition bass. No regrets. Best decision ever made. Smooth black nylon wounds, green silk. Now my beat up Hofner could work flawlessly and perfect for another McCartney tribute.

Made in canada, solid nylon strap. A bit slippery. However, the leather ends are very sturdy.

Quite slippery. Very sturdy strap. Beautiful embroided pattern.

Compact size, perfect for silent practice. Powered with 2 AAA sized batteries. it came with 3 drum samples, and 3 output mode. an aux cable and a portable speaker could make these practice amp as a makeshift gig/campfire amp. The only problem with this practice amp is some audible hum at hi volume/tone setting.

The built quality felt nice. From my experience, these cable are tangle-proof and remarkably low on noise. The neon green color is just brilliant and unmistakable.

Nice cable, the built material felt solid and remarkably low noise for the sound quality.

A nice pick, good grip, precise attack, good sounding and well balanced.
