j.helsey « lots of fun! »
Published on 07/12/12 at 02:09I 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 ...
