UTILIZATION
Before I had a Cort Action Bass 4 ... so I compare this bass compared to ...
The English Channel is it fun?
- I love! Bigger than my old bass. This form of race suits me perfectly and I get to play really fast ... It is well finished and has no surfaces would do is a little rough ... unlike the Squier Vintage Modified JazzBass I also tested ...
Access to acute is it easy?
- Yes ... I was already happy with my old bass on this point but then there ... it's great ... Of course we did better, but the look of this bass is a killer !
Ergonomics is good?
- I love the shape that reminds me of a really JazzBass.
- It stays in place when I play seated and balanced when I'm standing ... what else?
- The weight ... it is made Swamp ash (swamp ash) weight level ... so it could be worse ...
Do you get a good sound easy?
- It's super versatile ... I have not had time to test the beast ... but there's potential ... It's a little confusing at first.
SOUNDS
They are suitable to your style of music?
- I play mostly rock and funk and it suits me really well ... but I did not dpuis long so I still looking for my son ...
With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
- I play on an amp (for me ***) Harley Benton HB40B and I use from time to time a distortion or my CryBaby ...
What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
- This gives a lot of different sounds but I have not really had time to discover all the sounds.
What sounds do you prefer?
- For now I use the most: Volume bottomed active with only the bridge pickup, both bands of the equalizer in the middle position, the switch in position a serious medium and micro switch windings in position " all activated "
OVERALL OPINION
How long have you use it?
- Since only one day ...
What is so special that you like most and least?
- What I love most: the micro configuration, color (natural finish), form.
- What I like least: it lacks the small metal plate under the pots as the JazzBass ... but hey it's a detail.
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
- I hesitate between the lowest and JazzBass Squier Vintage Modified ... I made my choice ... I'd also compared to a Fender Mex JazzBass of OCCAZ ... but I had not been packed ...
- Compared to my old bass (I repeat for those who have forgotten: a Cort Action Bass) is a huge difference ... in the positive sense of course ...
How would you rate the quality / price?
- Huge! Compared to the Squier I tested it's great ... I did not expect to have a low level of this for this price (410 euros California Bass).
With experience, you do again this choice?
- No problem. I have to record a demo with my group ( http://www.myspace.com/dissent02 ) during the summer ... I'm very happy with my choice ...
