-Made in Indonesia licensed Fender.
Bridge-normal plastic suitable for silicone-strings.
Channel wood / plastic rod without (low tension of the strings so useless)
-24 Frets drawn (fretless neck), but 16 are playable after it because of the high-flying boxes quickly become tiny, given the small overall size of the baby bass. Usual markers on the side of the neck are also present.
Micro-piezo in the bridge, no problems of feedback / feedback.
-3 Potentiometers, one serious, one treble, and volume 1 (yes the usual order is reversed here in the arrangement). Note a "wedge" in the middle of the position of each potentiometer, with a white label history to locate their position.
-A red LED below us that the battery is ok, you plug a jack of 6.35 in the instrument. LED goes out when déplug, or if the battery is HS.
I always tend to fuck up my batteries low active forgetting déplugguer my jacks, also with passive basses. With this diode at this time it did not happen, it's ultimately a good reminder. ^ ^
My model is painted blue light, the general finish is neat, the machine is very light and compact. Many think it's a toy until they see fit ...
UTILIZATION
Channel pleasant, light, sliding it right for a fretless, boxes marked on the handle and points to the side, it is not dropped even though it was never attempted before the fretless, I think. (I have an electro acoustic, so I landed it, but I think it would help a first experience.)
-The interface is well past the first hour. Time to find the right balance and how to hold a small object to be comfortable in his type of game I tried various ways to strap this baby finally offered positions although initially it seems aber are the best, certainly the handle tends to pitch down, but it is held with his left hand while playing without pain, it weighs nothing.
In addition, we hold your thumb on the right hand side of the body between the bridge and neck. Plus you want a dry and lively, the more you play near the bridge (where the strings attached), plus you want a warm, round close to that of a bass, the more you play near the start of the handle ( the first freight). Basically space is 4 / 5 cm.
-Access to treble is delicate, so it is preferable to climb the ropes, playing beyond the 16 th frets becomes tense, but honestly not needed here anyway. The handle is not long boxes quickly become sensitive when approaching the 20aine.
-Easily obtained a good sound, what do I say its a huuuuge. The motto of this instrument is clear on this: small tool, big sound! Indeed the power and deep bass of this instrument makes all others obsolete casi, provided we adopt the concept "mini and fretless + silicone".
-I urge the talc baby (it's me "baby talc delicate skin Auchan" nice fragrance) or corn starch (it's me "fine corn" francine "" but "cornflour" I must go think).
-The silicone grips a bit, so a quick game will be difficult and rough slide show producing a curious cat's being slaughtered or abused violin. With talc or corn starch, the sound gets better and no problems with handling, it slides alone, and you can play any blind, limits faster than a conventional low, because here no need to support, it is played softly and finesse, it is tireless and the sound is huge at the slightest touch. The only problem might be, by far, whether you do not have a drug problem with all this powder, reassure your audience! lol.
Side-stand, CAUTION, the stands do not wear the traditional ashbory as too small, I use this model ideal MILLENNIUM GS-3000 Y in "thotho".
SOUNDS
-I play in three groups: 1 / Rock n 'Roll 60's-> 80's: they all passed my new strange instrument, it sounds better than before, the sound fits better with the overall sound and the feeling of having is behind a double bass is nice. 2 / French Pop Rock 80's -> new scene. Again, there's no photo, you can not do without. Yodelice example (sunday with a flu) is ideal for bass is stunning. And as I pass regularly on my Fender Stratocaster Fender ashbory this (according to pieces) I'm happy to have an instrument easy to apply and remove, and lightweight to handle when I play 40 tracks, alternating every 6 titles around. . 3 / Group composed rock / reggae / sega / folk / punk ausi Once the baby is adopted without hesitation, and I have too, then change the instrument every 2 shares, then so much the better!
"I put the mountain streams and treble their hold of the medium, the volume to ~ 75%, a lot of gain on the bass amp (Yamaha Stage 150 watts) on the console or Yamaha MG10 / 2 or phonic firewire helixboard 24 (can do without the amp actually). J'obtient and powerful sound, warm, round, very nice. None of my basses there comes close. Besides, I clean them and sell them (the electrical passive and active), I need, I do not care that my electro acoustic fretless, because it's a nice bass, and acoustic. I can not see the interest of piss me off with sleeves that move, the ropes that rust, anvils me fart shoulder, breads and fuck my friends when I pogotte around with my bass, made by the dynamic pieces. The ashbory has replaced everywhere and do better, so I adopted it is the beginning of a great love story, I feel it.
-When we put the index on the first cargo, and that plays directly to the taping of the lower boxes with the right hand, we get a bass sound like synths, it's fun and quite exploitable in certain situations.
Toll-talc, the friction of the strings (from top to bottom or bottom to top with right hand, left hand on the box to mark the note) is also interresting, we get an effect "viol" not too bad with mastery.
-Playing near the bridge brings you closer to an electric bass, and play near the frets gives a warm sound similar to the double bass, rich in vibrations.
The silicone-strings sound rich and fat (bass style), there are still strings polyurethanes (Pahoehoe Low Voltage Black Bass Strings for 18 "to 21" scale instruments Including Road Toad Tadpole) less sensitive (in fact, the D and G (especially) can more easily let go), but the sound is more dry against and need to talc, the limit of liquid silicone in place, but it is a choice worth considering (they exist but in black too many colors). At worst coward if your G is the opportunity to test a set of polyurethane, it's not like if you go up your silicone and the new G.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 1 month, 3 to 4 weeks for rehearsals, concerts +.
"I have other basses, active, passive, fretted (I intend to sell them after 7 years of loyal service) and electro acoustic fretless.
The-PLUS: Small / light / sound great and varied depending on the settings of knobs, the place of attack strings, tapping, scratching / look fabulous, and originality / 4 days after the strings are stable tone, even if we relax the D and G to make them last, when it tightens, it is! / Strings do not rust / the handle does not move / LED battery indicator / tying / instrument rather versatile in all styles.
-Cons: The Fretless side and the small size can be scary / new grip is one more tool to control / D G and especially fragile, relax with a 2-turn to avoid unpleasant surprises too often / we talc and everything that affects both the coup ... / Is not given in Europe, even if it's worth / ropes not easy to find at retail * / it does not take you seriously with that as long as you have not started to play ..
* Mike Tavener in England offers the rope by the meter silicone, it avoids piling of E and A for nothing and pay full sets each time / roadtoadmusic provides polyurethane if you want to test an alternative but more robust " sounds "a little less.
-Excellent value for money in the United States, not bad in Europe but much more expensive. Well, it's worth in my opinion anyway, this instrument is unique, and devilishly effective.
-I do it again this election, yes, also if my other basses are selling well, I buy a second in another color for delirium, especially for stringing a silicone polyurethane and the other to do never be stranded at the wrong time (full concert).
"I put around 10 because I am" in love ", it is a rare and amazing instrument, but attention must still tame a moment, and find the gallery ropes practices in a First, I mentioned above. I am super happy, probably one of my best investment instruments to date (and even I have a fender stratocaster california is to say). It revolutionized my music every day and is the joy of my three groups and the public.
