Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Good (some minor plastic shrinkage on the headstock face, scratches and dings, large finish flaw on back)
There's just nothing quite like a semi-hollow bass in terms of sound, feel, and tone! Guild's entry into this class is truly special, the Bisonic pickup retains the huge, warm tone you expect from this design while still providing plenty of clarity and cut. The slim neck is easy to navigate and the 30.5" scale makes for gloriously full fundamental tone and makes it so easy to play!
