Low German, JB Bolt type C rather flat, fretless, but "24 cases" in unmarked rosewood (the points are on the ct), neck and body wood unknown but compelling (I'm not tr s the very top! pretty under the veneer anyway), 2 passive pickups JB Hoyer, acastillage srieux and strong (large easel damn good, sturdy tuners musicman fawn and fits perfectly on the drive e) a micro volume, 1 Tone knobs pretty ... In short, no complicated electronic or rare woods, but, obviously, good manufacturing and quality sre!

Trslgre low due to a relatively flat compared body type JB MODELS. The handle is enjoyable because of a good varnish satin wood plutt key is good too, and pais, which is a real sign of construction. It is well done, simple but effective. Little more fun with the body dcoupe asymtrique pickguard and vintage, is of the usual JB.

Among the BMOL, a pickup for hum-Canceling t would welcome, and I prfr one microphone gain and a scale that plutt 2 micro gains, since only the last Part of their race is INTERESTED.

UTILIZATION

I find it a pleasure to play and ease of use because some of the key and the handle of quality. Weight, ergonomics and balance are excellent. The rglages make are simple, effective, and take the hard way.

SOUNDS

The sound is quite equilibrated once the microphones correctly rgls in height, they offer all their typing, it is in the universe JB. The neck pickup is sending the severe but the bridge pickup sounds more Triqui it will mainly increase the sound on the nose or a legalization ncessitera complmentaire. The Tone knob for that passive and only opens three minutes INTERESTED, it remains too dlicat rgler.

So we end up with a palette INTERESTED, trs pop sounds (with a good chorus Babooshka) jazz-funk and playing the right hand at the level of harmonics on the button, the bass is made convincing particular, but also the choice dpend ropes. Broadly speaking, I would say that there are about 7 sounds good DIFFERENT possible, all of whom made an opening and a trs crdible rel fun game - it's not bad at all, really.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought it on ebay by chance, I do not regret my investment! Try it if you get a chance, it's the good stuff IMHO - In any case, I did not ask for much to begin fretless, but now that I have, I do not lche ...
