Ibanez SR405EQM Electric Bass Guitar

The adjustments that you can make in this bass are wonderful. All the little squeaks that you need to do when you play in a band according to a song is made easy here when compared to the ones I've played before. The power tap/ eq switch I feel is the best feature of the lot. However on recieving the product I found the truss rod sticking out of its place beyond the nut!! Haven't seen anything like it before in a brand new guitar! I can only think that maybe the guitar was meddled with in some way before it was sent or maybe it's not a new one. The packaging was not broken. Was it previously used? Maybe, I dont know, but probably yes. I had to fix it on my own. Then I gave one tiny tweek to the fourth string and it broke making me more suspicious. The output port seems to be worked at, there is paint missing around the edges. It's a hassle to return products and go through all the nonsense of explaining stuff, not to mention the delays in everything. The guitar I recieved was dispatched a week after it was ordered, so I can guess the delays in everything else. I had ordered a bass previously but it wasnt dispatched even after a month. So I had cancelled that and this was the second one I ordered. I'm not a first time buyer from bajaao, all previous products were fine. But I'll be thinking twice about buying above ordinary/average products from here from now on.

Pros:Elegant and thin, sits nicely on your lap, looks awesomeLove the pickups, the PowerTap switch is a nice bonusEasy to play, feels comfy and the active EQ and tap switch gives a wide range in tonesCons:Came with a few minor defects (some odd colorations around the jack socket and screws) but no real impact on its looksString spacing a little tight (though still extremely comfortable). It could be a little more challenging to play slap on this than compared to say the Yamaha trbx line.Some fret buzz on the lower stringsOverall, although I'm yet to see how it holds up in the long run, as of now, it seems like a good, affordable, reliable bass
