I was looking for a simple, passive P-bass and came across this instrument. The reviews are not great on other platforms, but I took the risk because I absolutely love the design. It's very well built, and indeed, it feels different when playing compared to other basses, but neither good nor bad. It took me some time to find the right spots to put my right hand. It's an absolute joy playing it though, and I find the sound exceptional at this price point (besides a slight buzz when not touching any metal, but it's no issue when playing with others). My only negative point is that the neck dive is quite bad when using it with a strap, this takes a bit of getting used to when standing. It's much less an issue playing while sitting down.
