Best value: Excellent
I've had two months.
I like the practical side of his hourglass, being able to connect directly to a headphone on that train and retouve the ergonomics of a traditional bass (tilting the heel of the hand and pressing the body).

I do not like very poor quality of the strings, the shape of the bridge that does not allow the game to the bow correctly and setting the pike that moves when you play and tape inside the box (it s 'intends to registration or headphone)

I'm on a CB Aria long ago. It was the same sound as the Stagg: Dry, safe and not singing. I also tried the basses carbon as it sounds cooler than wood. For 10 years I played on traditional instruments.

In detail
- When I received it, after unpacking and assembly, I broke the G string in the agreement (and tzoing F #!). Send an email to the supplier telling me that I am not alone, that Stagg is aware and will send a new rope directly to buyers (that is).

- After playing on three strings for a few days, I quickly saw that we had sold me the ropes ... Clothes! . I ordered a set of Thomastik Super Flexible Medium and everything is back to normal (not curl over the ropes, I was able to lower the bridge and the sound is much more homogeneous)
If I have one advice for anyone who wants to buy the CB's faster to buy a real set of strings CB (Thomann, for example) - ATTENTION to the length of rope, 3 / 4 are too short ! Tomastik orchestra play - Spirocore 4 / 4 soft going well for jazz.

Her measurements: the tuning fork is 105.5 cm. The length between the nut and the fixing of the rope through the trigger guard is 136 cm

- In terms of sound, of course, it's pretty fretless bass. It was not the warmth of a true CB (a medium really sing and sustain at least two octaves). But once the strings changed, the worst is behind us.
- The handle is a composite curve by adjusting the allen key. The lifts are good. The setting is not terrible, but with better strings are not set correctly according to his game
- The system of internal amplification is:
- One headphone output and line input (CD, PC or other)
- Volume and bass / treble
It lets you play at home without amp. To practice it well.
- It is composed of body and two tubular extensions that are supposed to reproduce the impressions of true volume of a CB and I think it's quite successful.
Pressing the body and the heel stable and can recall the feeling to own a classic instrument.

It comes with a soft case of good quality and quite classy. We can store two detachable parts in closed compartments. The interior is moomoot and outside there is a pocket bow.

- Value for money is good for my use, despite the flaws mentioned above.
- As I only purchased to train easily and without disturbing others at any time of day and night, I do it again this choice.

I would add that it goes out of tune more often than my CB wood tree is a shame: - °
