MTD Kingston "The Artist" Bass Guitar (4 String, Fretless, Transparent Blue) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was new to bass guitars 2 Years ago, so I decided to up the bar with my MTD Kingston Fretless 4 string before I became proficient on a fretted 4 string bass.
I ordered mine online, and only prayed that it was what it promoted it was in the online display..
After getting my package via ground, I opened up the box, and picked it up carefully looking for any flaws.
There weren't any ! remarkably, it was all but one string being 1/4th a cent off ..IN TUNE !!!(It shipped from Phoenix ! ).
It arrived with round-wounds on it,and played and sounded so special..I am a front of house engineer for national acts,and my ears don't lie ! !
I could hear the pores in the wood..a majestic bowing swell accompanied every nuance.
I travel all over the World with my work,and will always check out a local music store, and look for new manufacturers,or exceptional instruments as a comparison to playability,sound,and looks.
Michael Tobias has a extraordinary ability to combine all the elements in one package. His work will stand tall withany world class performer,or Luther.
Wanna be inspired? Just play one...the proof is in the puddin' as they say..
I wouldn't even consider looking for another Fretless bass
Way to go Mike ! You are Tha' MAN !
