dwh87 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 My first bass was a milestone III. I traded in an epiphone SG400 for it. Nice slim neck, frets were all great and the fingerboard had an eyecatching figuring. The pickups were average and the input jack was shoddy until i properly fixed it up. Highly recommend as a starter or just something cheap to sling around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bass_Guardian Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 I dont really see whats wrong with this bass. Jack is fine to me, sturdy as. Light, sure the wood not the best but the harmonics are good. The fingerboard has a suprisingly really nice figuring. Its almost red rosewood Its sounds ok too cant really complain about getting a decent bass for FREE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
