- My model is an FB-05 but the same low under another name.
- Manufactured in Asia, possibly around 2004, mahogany body supposed to be, but I lean to the agathis: e in the cavity wood seems very clear and stringy ... Or is this the name change on the model? anyway that's another series ... Briefly: mystery.
- Maple neck, rosewood fingerboard with markings painted (not top, it is not careful about ...) but better presented on the site photo Audiofanzine, here's mine:

(I added a cache-bridge, see below)
- Two microphones simple keypad.
- Bridge and sound mechanical, electronic basic but clean.
- Bought second hand: it is well settled ... So I assume that new one could easily correct some flaws.
- Collage button / stick impeccable.
- No coating on the junction sleeve / body (save for the manufacture of blow ...), I took an old bridge cover to hide the misery.
UTILIZATION
- Excellent ergonomics: I feel it is for me, the body is not very wide or very thick, the balance is impeccable,
- Not too heavy, not stick flattened (I hate ...), wide enough not to be disoriented in from 4 to 5 strings, narrowly OK, nail soft handle, the agreement is no problem.
- Access to all notes without worry, the marks are visible at the top and bottom of the button, and on the edge of the handle.
SOUNDS
- The two microphones were substantially different sounds, EQ is effective, the mix of the microphones as the sound is balanced, no frequencies favored neither forgotten.
- No parasites or frieze, loudness Hon.
- I mounted my favorite strings, D'Addario Chromes on (there was already flat nets 45-130 above): Well I re-tuned the bass once after installing the strings, they n have not moved since.
- I use a Laney RB-4160 W. behind, I noticed in store that keeps its personality despite the different amplifiers.

OVERALL OPINION
- Bought a few days time, I spend the fretless 4 string given in SI-LA-RE-MI in the 5-string fretless.
- Frankly I feel great on it, I love to play.
- I regret the poor quality of the coating on the body, and would like to get a little more power, otherwise it is very comfortable and sound very serious and homogeneous FB-05 that satisfies me.
