Atrics FB-47

I do not know where it has been manufactured. Information seem rather difficult to glean. Most likely in a country where labor does not cost very dear ... Because having such quality at this price ... we must find a reason!
The bridge is aluminum rather massive. I will change because I will upgrade this amazing bass.
24 boxes to a tune of 34 as 86.4 cm
However, it looks like a short scale .... it is pokey next to my Fender ... the same wavelength.
I find it convenient for complex pieces.
I do not connsais wood species.
I can say that this is a race driver. Two pieces of wood are glued on the sides to complete the body.
I do not know the brand of microphones ... But do not bother to change, they provide.
The varnish is of high quality.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice. I do not have giant hands, but I find it fine.
The frets are a little high, but it works well.
Access to acute carefree.
Two knobs for both pickups, a tone, and a mix of the two microphones priori.
The sound is warm and round, the Fender Jazz bass.
If you put the treble, slap ... as promised.
I've never separated from this low because it has good ergonomics, except that it is heavy, but well balanced .... Conversely, it may be what gives it that warm sound.
I will change the machines and put an easel quality, but until she gave me great service.
My daughter has dropped it twice with his foot .. both times on the front of the handle ..
Result: the bone change and a reference that popped, but the maker will fix it myself ..
With two slaps it has taken, logically, it should sound wrong, but NO!

SOUNDS

While Pop and Rock, carefree.
I do not think it is designed to rove, even if the original bridge supports IMHO all raw, all we can significantly raise the strings ..
The slap: Occasional for garnish ... happening, but it is not intended for this purpose.
Good .. I play with a Markbass TA 501 head and 4x10 Bafle EBS .. it is sure that the sound is rewarded, but this material fully comply with the original sound of the bass, and indeed, this bass is not cheap at all ...

OVERALL OPINION

Many bassists have had in hand, some of VERY GOOD LEVEL, and all were surprised and delighted.
If you cross the road from one of them, it does nothing coast, and it is sure to delight you.
The value for money seems excellent.
You resell anyway for sure who will hear.
To start, the TOP!
Keeping a perfect score, sustain sick, accuracy of notes, everything is .. I promise, you're bluffing. This is also because I do not see any view that I take advantage of it for those who wish to buy a secondhand ... so I put 8 for this segment of quality / price.
Better there .. but much more expensive!
Morality, put money in the amplification, and take a bass like this one .. especially since it has a lot of mouth.
