I am a guitar player who wanted a cheap P-Bass style bass in my collection just in case I ever needed one — never ended up needing it. It is cheap and unbranded, but it plays fine and stays in tune. Good for a beginner on a budget. It comes with a carrying bag — I wouldn’t call it a gig bag because it’s not going to protect your guitar from anything except dust — but it does make carrying it easier and protect from minor scratches/dust. Will include pick and strap if you are a true beginner and need them.
