I have the squier version of this bass.I got this bass for a great deal at Bajaoo. The sunburst is most seeked after color, be it bass or guitar. And given it's a 5 string bass, the deal was perfect. I am a beginner level player. I bought this to improve on my bass skills.You may want to get a fender rumble amp to go with it. You can also use any guitar amp with a good headphones.Such a nice bass. Thanks Bajaoo for the great shopping experience
