Made in China, 0 fret (obviously). Mine was "natural" but the three parts of the body were of different colors.
Easel very ordinary, black, like the rest of the hardware, fragile ...
Handle fairly thick, gender Precision, or GM, not very "fretless" What ...

1 flight a microphone (or two), a dial tone. It crackles when you buy

Micro + micro type jazz Precision type.

UTILIZATION

The handle is too thick in my opinion for a fretless where it should slide. Access to acute is still easy. Alas, no one can adjust the height of the handle and fill it unpleasantly frieze.

Solution: 6mm ropes of the handle: unplayable. Or support dzoing-dzoing. (Mounted with spun Addario dishes);

In addition, this round blackened fingers as if it were dry . After a tube of fast freight, always dirty. The key is attacked if you play with spun round.

The weight is correct, ergonomics as well. But how to enjoy it with these left hand cramp after 20 minutes of play ..

When the sound is the good, the microphone has an output level almost decent.

SOUNDS

With a fretless, you can play everything ... what we think is not confined to one style. Except that this one ...

Tried several amps (Peavey, Fender ...), the sound is not that bad but the finish is deplorable enough to obscure the potability of the sound.

Good range with the jb and the bp.

OVERALL OPINION

Handle that dirty fingers & "inréglable" fittings second best (or third), mechanical suspicious (hard spots when turning).

Only positive: € 160, mounted with crappy strings.

The plan: to find a € 50 and to re-run by a luthier, or stick to it.
2 points for the price, and that's it.

With experience, I was going, or wait and buy one occasion, a squier, or even € 50 and I grinds the handle without fear.

In short: AVOID STAGG, I strongly suspect of dealing with shareholders Stagg for advice before mine ...;)

And Sandberg or Alembic, 12 stars??
