Eastwood Guitars Classic 4 Bass

I got mine imported from Canada, but it was made of wood tailpiece Chine.chevalet Grestch kind. Handle very fine, long scale, the pickups are copies of the Grestch humbuckers with three adjustment knobs, two volume one tone.
My bass is in shades of orange with gold hardware, it gives it a look sublime
Only small downside, I had to polish the varnish in places.

UTILIZATION

It took me a few days to familiarize myself with the fineness of the handle ... But then it did! The bass is light enough for my taste, which can leave the stage with his shoulder still functional. (The flight is heavy!)
Access to acute? As easy as on any other bass, at least until the twentieth box ...
The sound is typed "vintage"

SOUNDS

This bass is not for every style of music; Slap here above denote some form of masochism ...
But as I play blues and rock sixties, it's perfect. The sound palette is more than satisfactory, the very fat - style I play deep in the cellar - in its more contemporary through the bridge pickup has the mids clear and warm
I play on an Ampeg antediluvian without any effects pedal (not know to use it!)

OVERALL OPINION

So I play for almost two years and love the e; when you tip on stage with that, the least we can say is that you do not go unnoticed ...
I have not been hundreds of low to compare, but it is comparable with accuracy or Ibanez? Certainly not!
The feature that I was a little unsettled initially, and now I like is this long, thin neck.
The price / quality ratio is much to his advantage; when you see what is selling in the 500 to 600 €, the question make the same choice does not arise ...

Low imported from the United States but made in China.
2 Humbucker pickups back connected in series.
Keystone Bridge floating bridges brass inserted into the wood.
1 volume knob for each pickup, a button to the tone, a three-position switch: bridge pickup / neck pickup / both.
Short handle is a 30 1 / 2 ". 22 frets.
Color: orange tangerine, walnut brown, white and gold hardware (top kitsch!)

UTILIZATION

Channel round but not fat enough. It looks like the sleeve of my Honhai B2A. Very pleasant and comfortable to play.
The cut of the box allows easy access to acute.
I tested it in a sitting position, it is well balanced (the handle does not dive) but not heavy. The bass drum that can stall well without being uncomfortable because it is not very thick (it's not a jumbo!).
As for sound, a slaughter. The model I tested was fitted with nets dishes. Relief, a real delicacy. A warm, full, round: jazz, blues, rock 60's, short as happiness. Whatever the setting, it sounds like it should.

SOUNDS

I said earlier: jazz, blues, rock 60's. It's warm and full e country fans should also enjoy.
I tested it on a combo Hartke A100 aluminum cone (my favorite): ben it sounds not metal at all!
Warm and Péchu on the neck pickup, more harmonics and bite on the bridge pickup. All this, of course, in style.
I put 8 because it is not, however, a versatile bass (but it's really for chipauter).

OVERALL OPINION

I tested one hour in the store by chance, since I want a semi-acoustic to complete my arsenal for two months. This is it: versatile in style with these retro humbucker, ergonomic
I tested an Ibanez AGB 200: hollow sound, noise and bad vibrations despite variations in the volumes of the two pickups and tone, nothing happens: a short plank. I tested an Epiphone Jack Casady: good sound but few possible settings (only 1 humbucker). I came across this by accident Classic 4 and it does things. Same price in stores that Epiphone (a tad above): € 690.
Well, after prospecting US sites, it is something for € 450 (excluding fleet box).
The purchase, for me, is imminent. At this price, no need to go without.
