SOUNDS

I wanted a low second to expand the styles, with a 4-string Ibanez BtB oriented sub and slap, this 5-string comes at the right moment!

I love the whole range of the bass, with a preference for the neck pickup.

Nothing to report on this bass, but the fine-tuning of the onboard preamp (3 pots, microwave severe acute micro flight notch flight), especially the notch-20dB at 850 htz, not to abuse, if the bridge pickup will pick up ambient magnetic interference, such as a Fender Stratocaster ...
I struggled a bit to set it all, the former owner had put all the way!

This is a great bass, very precise, the 5th string on some low is the black point, no worries here!

Schaller strap lock acquisition, repositioning those latter relative to the anchor points of origination fasteners.

The new prices turned in 1100 euros
I even had the price of a 600 roro fly Gator games and a string of new ...
