I just bought one of these. Every word is true here: affordable, high-quality instrument in sound and appearance as well. For its price it is a great instrument.

[@ChezzOnBass]

How’s the weight?

[@mrimmortalis]

@@ChezzOnBass I haven't checked mine, but it doesn't feel heavy, and is very well balanced.

[@unclechichilla]

This bass sounds really good - the review is excellent and nicely in depth. Just one question - are the pickups noiseless/hum free?

[@phipschi4255]

No, true single coils

[@dominikignys6846]

how about action on this guitar? There is a complain on tho mann that is high and cannot be lowered on stock bridge? Anyone can confirm or deny?

[@ajdoyle9559]

Thank you for this. Great review. How heavy is this bass ? Is the neck good for people with smaller hands ?

[@warburgaby]

max 4Kg, neck ultraslim and thin, perfect for smaller hands

[@edhauser6052]

im looking at a markbass bass, but its not affordable. Its $1799 and i cant figure out why its that much? can someone help me out? thanks

[@rockandrollisyourmom]

You’re looking at the wrong model. This is a GV4. The more expensive one is the JF1.

[@johnsausage]

Does the bass work in passive mode even when the battery is dead or when there is no battery put in?

[@kennethsmith2738]

It works in passive mode with no battery, yes.

[@johnsausage]

@@kennethsmith2738Thanks!

[@thewomble1509]

Making the inlays the same colour as the body would improve the look of this bass massively. They are almost invisible.

[@phipschi4255]

That's true, at least it doesnt look bad tho

[@ajdoyle9559]

I disagree. Surf green inlays would ruin an otherwise beautiful instrument for me.

[@rasputin3834]

From playing it in person, the inlays are way more visible irl and well compliment the green

[@thewomble1509]

@@rasputin3834 Thanks for the reply. did you buy the bass?
