I especially like the sound "Marcus Miller" for the slap and if I cut the mic often serious finger when I play, it gives a dry, precise, or close to its Pasto Caron with a little less mediums.

I still have not had to change one piece, the handle does not move a muscle (I recalcitran just a button that is trying to make the often difficult, dc must regularly Resser, ms c a trifle). I had the opportunity to test bass (Alembic, F, Foedora ...) and bcp fender, Warwick. Without exaggerated heads in c marks there must be 5000 for the equivalent of its marcus. The only downside and it's size, it buzzed a lot (I will test out the microphone vintage "Noiseless" of fender ms g lest they change the sound).
