UTILIZATION

The handle is excellent!
The hand is comfortable, not tired.
The profile is rather round, but late.
This low availing oneself of a good ergonomics, a body that does not offset trslger exactly the weight of the handle. As a small RESULTING dsquilibre, but very subtle and not Drang.
CASC to treble is perfect, almost too much for even a bass!
The sounds are really good, the pickups have a good output level (that of certain assets multimdia!), Is specific on the Jazz, hitting, while the Precision brings roundness, warmth, and good trunk groove without drooling. The mix of both is an achievement, especially on a game fretless. On a good amp, this bass is really a good instrument, surprising even for entry level. I

SOUNDS

practice Mtal and Rock with this bass. She is comfortable in all circumstances, even with a distortion pedal Behind (hrsie on a fretless me tell you !)...

I use an Ashdown MAG-C210T-300 amp that is very much in session can be on stage (bought 300 euros!). With good rglages, rang, no need to look elsewhere in my case (all for 480 euros with low ...).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years.

I tried the Ibanez models (good innings, microphones shit as usual) with a K5 and a Ergodyne, a Warwick, a lag of the 80's, a LTD, a Music Man Stingray (untouchable), a G & L (untouchable too !)... well for 2 and 10 times cheaper, I have an instrument which responds my expectations! Why look elsewhere?

Obviously this is not an instrument of Cadore (the Stingray and the G & L blown me), but for the price, it carrment Case of the millennium!
