Great Microphone that can do it all

I don't have anything to say about this mic that hasn't already been said. If you want quality recordings and can afford it, get it.

Great practice and DI pedal

This was a good one stop shop for improving my practice and recording game. I still use one on my pedal board in case I need to reduce a frequency for feedback. As a DI box it is great, I think I'd be happier if the volume and gain could boost the signal, instead I need to be wary that I'm not clipping through this pedal before my signal gets to the house/PA, so I'm taking a star here.

Do not DIY unless you are experienced

I give this instrument 5 stars, it's affordable, versatile, feels and plays great.

The manufacturer has removed the electronics schematics from their website, and this instrument has a proprietary 4 knob active control panel (the active knob controlling bass boost). I had to use a poor angle of a youtube video and a whole lot of good karma to solder the electronics back together after I put a different finish on the bass.

Functional Jazz Bass - sounds and looks like a jazz bass

Observations: -Very Affordable -VERY heavy. the solid ash body and maple neck probably contribute to the tonal properties, but at a cost (this is why I'm rating 3 stars). -Sounds like a jazz bass, I like the Roswell pickups in it. -Looks like a jazz bass -Comes set up out of the box (if you buy new)

Affordable, Easily Visible, Small Reliable Tuner

Read the title, this is an easy read. :)

Quality Practice Amp

This was a great first amp, too small for band practice but great for my apartment, being able to plug an aux in was huge for practice and listening to bass tracks. Don't plug a guitar into it unless you want to promote your practice amp to a bed side night stand like I did :)

My first guitar - still used today!

I impulse bought this guitar as a freshman in college, learned 6 chords, and played it once a month or less for the following 2.5 years. Once I was interested in guitar again, I put new strings on it and once the strings were worn in it holds tune for full practice/jam sessions. For the price, and how neglected it was, I can't ask for more out of the guitar.

Very comfortable practice bass.

I have a lot of fun playing this bass while sitting, it sounds great and looks badass. I can't seem to find a comfortable way to play it while standing, the neck seems a little heavy.
