Amazing sound, ok quality for the price.
The best thing about the PB-50 is the pickup. It has a huge p-bass sound with a really punchy attack.
The bass is relatively heavy, so be sure to use a wide strap.
Typically for low cost left handed instruments, they have used the same potentiometers as in the right handed models, but wired them in reverse for the left handed instrument.
This means the taper on the potmeters is wrong and they basically work like on/off switches.
You can choose to void the warranty and rewire the potmeters to work as in a right handed instrument.
Once rewired, the volume and tone pots works great and provides a surprisingly wide array of tones.
The neck has a classic, chunky p-bass profile with a smooth and comfortable finish.
The fretwork is not the best. My instrument has quite a few sharp fret ends .
The tuners are ok, but a bit too low ratio for my taste.
The bridge and the nut are as you would expect on an instrument at this price point: they are there, they work, but they are nothing special.
All in all, the PB-50 is a great sounding instrument, that plays and feels ok for the price.
