Good for Beginners
This bass is great for the price. It has some good action to it. Some nice sounds. Sounds great on a Marshall hybrid. My friend and I did some recordings with this baby a few weeks ago and it performed like a champ, very nice funky grooves and it wasn't even amped. Just a direct in. Very good for the price. Highly recommended for non-bassist.

The Ibanez IJXB190: Very Nice!
I got the pack on Christhmas 2005. I'm going to stress that this a STARTER PACK and I am comparing to other packs. I have since bought a Oscar Schmidt by Washburn Delta King bass.
Features: The bass is decent. The input jack comes loose and spins around, which breaks all the wires. I got a nice jack put in it. The pickups are nice, I am going to put EMG passives in it. Frets are nice, not jagged. Bridge is good, it has nice sustain and doesn't hack up your strings (which you should change as soon as you can). The neck was set perfect right out of the box.
Amp: OK. Not a whole lot of tone, but it is alot better than the amps that come with the Squire and Epiphone packs.
Accessories: Tuner is nice. I still use it though I have the Boss TU-2. Strap stinks, get a new one with locks as soon as you can. Headphones are relly great. Video is really helpful. Gerald Veasley (who is awesome) shows how to play and take care of your bass.
I believe that's it. The bass is well built and is worth putting some money into, it will still be cheaper than buying another one. Buy it, you won't be dissapointed.

this bass lasts so long
i got this bass when i first begun playing (about 3 years ago). And its still in really good condition. the only bad thing i had with this bass is that the tuning keys are plastic and might crack like mine did. and they also are a little loose so when you play it they keys buzz. but over all this bass it great for starters.

This is THE kit to get you going !
This kit has ALL you need to start grooving right out of the box. It won't empty your wallet and you get a top notch bass. The only flaws are the strap and the cable, everything else is GREAT!

Good Bass
My parents bought this bass for me about three years ago. However, they did not get the entire Jumpstart Pack. They got just the bass. The Ibanez IJXB190 is a great starting bass. It has great volume and tone for the price. It is fairly light and has a good feel to it. I have played many other "starting" basses but none pleased me more than this. I highly recommend that you buy this bass. It feels good, looks good, and sounds good. All for one great low price. Get it!!!
