Chris (MD, Guitar Mania) says:
“There’s plenty of competition for your business at the beginner level, but we’d recommend checking out this encore pack. It’s better quality than most gear4*** and squ** basses that we’ve found. The frets seem to be nicely finished, it’s not too heavy and has a fairly low and comfortable action. Not exactly a household name but if you like to listen to advice then we’d say come and check this out. Also worth considering is that we’re an old fashioned music shop that sets up every guitar before it gets sold, i know that sounds like it should be a ‘given’ but in our experience it isn’t and buying from big music shop / warehouse amazon could mean all you end up buying is a piece of wood that looks like a bass and is unplayable. Shop local !”.
