    If this bass is the same as the B-5e with a different finish, you will not be disappointed. Neck is amazing to play! Very fast and comfortable. The pickups really cut through the mix as well. The only critique I have is that the electronics could have been a little better for tone shaping and it's a little on the heavy side. Both of those things may have been fixed as I got mine over 15 years ago lol. Overall a really good bass for the money!
