It is great fun to play and the perfect practice bass for when you're sitting on the Sofa, in fact, i tend to have a spot on the wall for every stringed instrument I own, this one doesn't have a spot there, since it's spot is either laying on the sofa right beside me, so it's quick to grab when I have an Idea or want to practice something, or just jam with whatever's on the Screen, or basically everywhere I go when I go out, it's small, and light and therefore it's easy to take anywhere and it has already been great in jam sessions, I do recommend a small amp though if you're playing with other acoustic instruments, especially steel string guitars as they are a bit louder than this little bass, I have so far used my JBL bluetooth speaker as an amp, but I have just ordered a small battery powered amp for this thing. The sound plugged and unplugged is great, I was actually pleasantly surprised with the plugged sound, so were my friends. I just recommend having your hand closer to the bridge, otherwise the Poly Urethane strings have too much travel.
Lastly the action is extremely low and very easy to play and fun, in fact the less you press on the strings with the left hand and the less you pluck with your right hand the better it sounds.
