I've been playing guitar/bass for 40+ years. I love this acoustic bass. It is easy to play stays in tune and has rich bottom sound without distortion. It is perfect for playing in small venues, studio or practice. It is essentially an acoustic with a Fender Jazz neck on it. The only draw back is that it is top heavy, even with a strap, it will tend to dip but, not enough that it becomes a major issue.
