Needed this by Friday. Ordered on Wednesday morning with the two day shipping,,,,came right on time to my door on Friday ! This is a beautiful guitar,,,,it came flawless right out of the box,,,the neck is absolutely beautiful. The amp is a great starter bass - amp,,,,performed beautifully in a large room when I needed it that weekend. It's also compact enough to toss in my car and practice and store in my tiny apartment. The accessories could be better, but seriously, for the price you can't really ask for more. Fender cold have charged this price for the guitar alone,,, it's that nice. During the gig that weekend a coulple of the other musicians came up to compliment me on what a nice bass guitar it was. The bag fits just fine for me, but it's not padded, so eventually you may want to get one that is. Be advised, you'll need one of those square 9V batteries for the tuner. The instructional DVD it comes with isn't that great,,,,I recommend 'The Rockhouse Method' - 'How to play bass guitar-Beginnner' for a more comprehensive tutorial. Also comes with a very nice Fender guitar chord to connect to the amp and a set of headphones.
