I've owned my Yamaha JP2 for more than a year and this is, hands down, a fantastic instrument. The workmanship is superb and the tone is as even and balanced as any bass I've played. The range of tones available is tremendous and they are all usable. For a 6 string bass, this is the best value in this price range. If you want better, prepare to spend $6k and up on a Ken Smith, Fodera, etc. It is the prettiest thing I own! The only potential negative has to do with the sheer size of the instrument. If your hands are of medium size, the neck may be too big for you. The wide string spacing and 35" scale work for some people but it's not for everyone. In addition, at 11 lbs it's not exactly light. Within two months of ownership I switched to Gotoh GB-350 lightweight tuners and reduced the weight by nearly 1/4 lbs. While the balance wasn't bad before, the lighter weight tuners improved it; in my opinion, it's how it should have been equipped.Read full review
