General

If you're ready to take on a five-string bass or you're an ambitious beginner seeking more of a challenge, then the P-style Fazley Sunset Series Piranha five-string offers the extended range of an extra low-B for an ultra-low price. Even in standard tuning, the extra low-B string means that this bass can go another five semitones lower, expanding the note range and pushing up the potential. Meanwhile, the comfortably lightweight basswood body has been given a tasteful high-gloss paint job and fitted with an extra-stable bolt-on roasted maple neck with a satin-gloss finish and a modern-C profile, supporting a smooth and fast feel all the way up to the highest of the twenty-one medium-jumbo frets. The full and warm core sound of this bass is enhanced by the mid-range accent and lightly pronounced trebles added by the high-grade Graph Tech TUSQ nut, giving the amplified tone of the mounted split-coil pickup some satisfying balance and bite. As a generous bonus, this five-string bass comes complete with a form-fitting gig bag.

Wrote the following about Fazley Sunset Series Piranha 5 Surf Green 5-String Electric Bass Guitar with Gig Bag

Was looking for a Precision type bass in a certain colour and the Fazley fitted the bill. At the price was worth a shot and received in kess than 48 hours. Remarkable value for money, plays and sounds really well at a cost of at least half of what you would expect for a 5 string bass.Very pleased and coupled with another purchase got free shipping. Amazing!
