by Simon from Chatsworth, CA
What a unique "tubular" type sound you can get with this bass. No actives on it, but it doesn't need any! Simple, great sound.
January 9, 2012 Music Background: More than a hobby Incredible!!!
by Tom Chase from Haverhill, MA USA
My bass teacher is impressed with [my] this bass! He says it has the same natural tone quality as a piano... which I took it as a great compliment to the instrument. This bass feels good!!! I got the ... read more [+]heaviest one available at the time of purchase and it paid off in tone; it's incredible! It's a great all around bass! I've played everything from Beatles, Zeppelin to Red Hot Chili Peppers on it! Besides the tone, the next best feature is the neck! But that 'song's' already been sung in the other reviews! Everything they say about this bass is true! This is a keeper! close [-]

by Tim from Englewood, CO
....no regrets.....any. It's my first bass so I can't give an in depth technical review. I'll get rid of equipment pretty quick if it doesn't feel/sound right or is hard to play. This will be around... read more [+] for a very long time. it comes with a very nice soft case, but get a hard case anyway. close [-]
February 26, 2010 Music Background: Drums and now a bass to go with them All the Reviews Are True
by Steve Baltimore from Baltimore, MD USA
Yes, all the reviews are absolutely true. These pickups must be waxed dipped, 'cause they are super quiet, meaning no extraneous noise. Thick and clear tone. Yes, the neck feels like heaven. It's ... read more [+]all due to the Japanese high high quality. They are fanatics about quality control. Be picky only about the weight. Some of the Geddy Lees are a ton; but once in a while you find a light one. Always ask how much does it weight. Anyway, you will be pleased with every Geddy Lee. close [-]
September 2, 2008 Music Background: Hobbyist for over 30 years Best Bass I've Ever Owned
by Geoff Rayback from Salt lake City, UT
I have been playing bass for 22 years and I have played a lot of instruments. This is without a doubt the best sounding and best playing one I have owned. I usually stay away from "signature" models ... read more [+]and I am certainly not a Geddy Lee disciple, but don't let those factors deceive you, this is a terrific bass. The neck is perfect, nice and wide, and not too deep. The sound is stellar. Thick and meaty but still clear and round. I have been doing nothing but recording with it, mostly really hard stuff, and it sounds incredible. I have also been screwing around with it in my practice sessions playing old Flea and Les Claypool stuff and it sounds great on that as well. OK, and I admit that I did play Tom Sawyer on it, but only once. Sounded pretty sweet on that as well. Don't bother paying more for a bass that won't be as good, this is almost as good as it gets. I've played instruments that cost twice as much and delivered about half what this baby does. close [-]
