I was so amazed of the sound and play of this bass. It is definetly a bang for your buck and a great bass for beginners. The only complaint though there is a little feed back but other then that it is great

Well, I'm in Iraq right now and so I decided to take a hobby up so I said why not bass guitar. I didn't want to get an expensive one in case it was messed up while over here, I looked around Amazon and found that Woodwind and Brasswood would ship to APO address. Being only $119 I decided it was a reasonable risk in getting this bass guitar. I placed my order several days before Easter, and that's where the trouble started (bare with me, I'll get to the guitar).
On the Saturday before Easter I get an e-mail from the company telling me it would be a month and a half before my product shipped. Personally, I feel that's a bit of a wait and e-mailed the company that day to try and cancel the order. I get an out of office response, which I'm cool with.. it was Easter weekend after all.
Monday rolls around and I get a response from Customer service, from the above mentioned company, stating that they would try and stop my order. After 4 e-mails from the company stating that they were trying to stop the order (guess they aren't allowed to have phones at the warehouse) I get an e-mail saying that the item was allready loaded on a truck and that the warehouse refused to take it off just because I no longer wanted it. (silly me, I thought me being the consumer I was supposed to be right) What I found very odd was once I wanted to cancel the order it was no longer going to take a month and a half.
The customer service e-mails me again and says that if I still don't want it I can return it and that they would send out shipping labels to me once I recieved the item (why not send them out with the product?). The stipulation was that if the box is damaged, then they start deducting from my $119 I paid. For those that don't know, packages arriving in Iraq don't usually have the pristine condition that is required for me to get my $119 back in full, much less arriving back in the states in such a condition when mailed from here. I had to e-mail them back and let them know it was not worth the risk, that they had stuck me good this time.
******* On To The Guitar **********
So I ordered the candy apple red varient, opened the "box" and it looked nice. Thought I was getting real lucky.. until...
It was filthy, I don't just mean dusty.. it had some gloopy garbage on the screws that was a mix between dried food and candle wax. It was all over the thing to be exact, but I mention the screws because it was like they purpously put the stuff in them. The fret board looked like it had just been removed from King Tut's tomb. The body had knicks, scratches, even a ding or two.
I spent a good two hours cleaning it up, and I still don't think I got all the goop garbage out of the screwheads.
However, for all that bad it tuned nicely and quickly. I've had no major issues with it at all. It does sound nice, and unless you know where to look you can't notice the scratches and dings.
I would have to say that if I could have gotten this bass from another company then it would have been a great experience.
However take the good with the bad.... I bought a decent beginner's bass for cheaper than most beginner bass guitars.
Not a bad product if you have someone that may or may not follow through with learning the bass. Defiently want to upgrade in time though.
