The Skyline is cheaper, but not the USA series. Although a bit pricey, they are lovely Instruments to play.

I was referring to the Skyline series. Some of the Skyline Joe Osborns I've played are better than some of the Fender CS's ive played.

I really like the thought of a lower priced Xotic. I believe they use the same pickups and preamp as the USA models. Very much like Lakland. 

I'm really impressed with the quality - made in Indonesia, but finished off in the U.S. I've gigged this bass a few times and used it in rehearsals with a couple of bands, and really does hold it's own in the mix.

I was truly on the fence about fender until I tried a fender jazz elite 5er in guitarguitar Birmingham. It was WAY out of my price range but ended up buying it because it was without doubt the nicest 5 that I ever played. It just spoke to me! 

The compound neck radius, that active tone, the fit and finish were all superb. And the B is great! 

Still love it.
