    Excellent tool for study

    I use this bass since October 2010 with a bow and pizzicato. This is one of the first basses I've tried and I was very pleased from the start.

    The instrument sounds great, the sound is clear and defined, but it lacks some roundness. Of course the instrument is set for beginners and that's fine because it helps not to get hurt. And with the adjustable bridge you can gradually adjust the height of the strings according to what suits you.

    The price / quality ratio is unbeatable! In Paris, the survey instruments are sold between 2000 and 2500 euros. You will not find cheaper than Fabrice Gougi for a quality such as this one. In addition the instrument is as beautiful as the photos, it has…

    I do it again this choice without the slightest ounce of hesitation!

    The Best

    I am a bass player (electric) fan for over 10 years and the desire to move to the bass was there for many years but not the budget ...
    I tried a few bass hand or with a luthier in La Rochelle but nothing interesting (basically it sounded not).
    By researching on the net I came across the website of GOUGE Fabrice. I exchanged email with Fabrice.
    The hardest part was ordered and not try, but the reviews on his site and many users (including conservatories) were able to reassure me.
    Then I decided to go straight to the shop to try to meet and especially Fabrice.
    I spent a very good after noon with Fabrice technique discussed but not only ...

    And to my surprise I immediately played it, it's as if I had taken my bass (or vice versa). It sounds superb.
    I did not try another model (being new to the practice of bass) but frankly it is a "Rolls" for the price of a "mini".
    Again, thank you to Fabrice allow as many musicians to play on quality instruments and a fair price (for each).
    After a year of solo practice at home, I confirm that the practice of the bass is totally different from the electric bass. But I'm starting to make me happy, to discover the freedom of a race without borders (without cargo what!)
    and yes if I would do it again the same choice .... my biggest regret: not having met Fabrice earlier!

    For me, it will soon be 2 years since I purchased my bass Gougi CB1.
    Upon arrival of the latter, I was surprised by the perfect finish of the bass and especially the sound quality. The sound is very deep and is very enjoyable to play.
    It's a quality / price unbeatable for bass in this category.
    In addition, for the price, you receive a flexible bag and another in rigid.
    I can only recommend to go through the house Gouge, who still listens to its customers and is also good advice.

    Very satisfied

    This is my first bass, I have been since 2011. I had already bought several years ago to Fabrice Gougi a violin equipped with an internal preamp Schertler gave me any satisfaction (with a very big sound). I asked the same system for bass and the sound is again impeccable, powerful and clear.
    The instrument was a pleasant surprise: its color is more beautiful than the pictures. The sound is beautiful and impressive sustain.
    The value for money is unbeatable in my opinion, especially as the bass comes set with Velvet strings (expensive), a very decent bow (+ case, cover and stand), so ready to use.
    If unfortunately I am the flying, I would buy the same again.

    I've been using a CB1 for 6 months and I'm very happy with it. I got it very well prepared and adjusted. Before that I had a very hard to play double bass I bought on Ebay. The CB1 was more expensive but it is easier to play. Now I can finally learn how to play with a bow. I think it's good value for money. I dearly recommend this double bass that allows you to start playing and develop your skills.
