Is this a good first bass?

Yes, it is built as a learner instrument. The full 34-inch scale and 4-string layout teach standard bass technique, and the light body is easier on beginners than many full-size basses.

It weighs 7.7 lbs, which is light for a full-size electric bass. The ergonomic cut across the back follows the ribcage and helps it sit comfortably.

What is the body and neck made of?

The body is solid paulownia with a sealed black finish. The fingerboard is rosewood and the headstock is maple.

What comes in the box?

The set has 5 pieces. The bass itself is the main item; check the listing for the accessories included.

Does it need a setup before playing?

It is described as ready to play out of the box. Many budget basses still benefit from a truss-rod and intonation check by a tech.

Is it full size or short scale?

It is a full-size bass, so it uses standard long-scale strings and standard tuning.

Our take on the SUGIFT Black 4-String Full Size Electric Bass Guitar

The SUGIFT 4-String Full Size Electric Bass is a beginner-priced bass with a solid paulownia body in a black finish, a rosewood fingerboard and a maple headstock. At 7.7 lbs it is light for a full-size bass, and the body has an ergonomic cut across the back that follows the ribcage, so it sits comfortably for long practice sessions. It is aimed at learners and players who want a cheap second bass for a rehearsal room. Against rivals at the same level it is a simple passive-style instrument with no active electronics or premium hardware, so expect basic pickups and tuners rather than the fit and finish of a name-brand starter bass.
