Excellent value for money
Been playing it for a few months as my first fretless bass.
Feels very nice in the hands, the neck and lacquer fingerboard are smooth; good materials, finish and colours. The bridge passes the magnet test and has some nice weight to it; the tuners are on par as well. I'd say build quality is also above average, neck joint is very snug with virtually no gap - better than some far more expensive Precisions I've seen. Electronics are fine, no loose joints, the pickup sounds quite good recorded.
Decent factory setup, instantly playable - but as always with fretless things you'll most likely have to adjust (intonation at the very least).
The only real downside I've found is a tiny bump on the fingerboard on the treble side: enough to steal some sustain from the G string around 4-8 frets when using a fairly standard setup. Nothing dramatic and can be worked around by adjusting the setup, but it definitely keeps the neck from being perfect.
Overall a great bass, especially for how much it costs - worth it even if you factor in some luthier costs.
