    I lowered the height of the strings (without touching the curve of the handle), now it is even easier.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had four months.
    She is beautiful and well finished, it is enjoyable to play.
    I tried a few dj bass, but I never possd one.
    The price quality ratio is amazing. Guitarist for 20 years it gives me Discoveries as a player of the bass.
    I assure you that the price is thundering over quality, that can really play with this bass (individually or in groups), which can also register.
    It is on when you're high on some trs RVer a Fender, but for learning it well trs.
    I have a bass amp jou Marlboro (vintage transistors) or direct the sound.
    Exprience with the choice I would do the same, plutt twice that.

    Small update, three years later, I replaced the microphone by a severe precision home bass line (by shielding the body, otherwise it micro parasite), now my wife and playing with has sent the fire god in a 115 ampeg ba

    See other view, any adj t say that.

    UTILIZATION

    Well, I'll immediately prciser I'm not a real bass player but a guitarist who wants to try out the 4-string, and I do not have this bass for a long time, so this is a first notice.

    - The handle is it enjoyable? Yes, in my humble opinion as a guitarist, it is enjoyable, easy to play, do not worry this ct-l.

    - Access in acute (dernires freight) is it easy? Not specially, because the heel (but is rcurrent Fender, it's the same on my Start); That said I started the bass so I was not too had the opportunity to go so high!

    - Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)? This is a copy of Jazz Bass, so in terms of form, n…

    - Access in acute (dernires freight) is it easy? Not specially, because the heel (but is rcurrent Fender, it's the same on my Start); That said I started the bass so I was not too had the opportunity to go so high!

    - Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)? This is a copy of Jazz Bass, so in terms of form, not much to say. Weight is also reasonable and low, although not perfectly balance (but with a strap does not feel almost) enjoyable to play.

    - Gets it easy to sound good? ... Not with the original strings anyway. If the strings of the, r and ground are saying "drinking", the middle should be a piece of cable so the sound is rcupration dgueulasse. However, having prvu the coup, I quickly replaced by the strings Warwick Red Label, and t aa day and night!
    Super enjoyable emphasize a point: the bass perfectly RULES happened in terms of intonation (each string empty and its natural setting the 12th case are perfectly correct)

    SOUNDS

    - Appropriate are your style of music? At the risk of rpter, I am based guitarist, so comments on bass, trying to touch everything. However, for the little that I use, this bass seems plutt versatile.
    - With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play? I took a small pack of Thotho with Harley Benton amp 20 watts, and a multi-effects Zoom B1 to play with headphones.
    - What kind of sound you get and with what rglages ("crystalline", "bold ",....)? By acting on the volume knob microphones & Tone of the attack (finger, m diator, slap) gives dj basic palette of sounds cool, the crystalline fat. With a multi-effects carrment is bluffing, the possibilities are huge!
    - What are the sounds you prfrez, you dtest? All sounds have their charm ... But I have a weakness for greasy type sounds hard rock, and a multi-effects, with a simulated Ampeg for example, sends!

    OVERALL OPINION

    - How long have you use it? Just a few days, I RPET, it is only printing Premire ... J'diterai probably the future.
    - What is the particular feature you like best and least? The more ... Dj's easy to play and get her ready-made drinking quickly. And I love the look Jazz Bass. The least, the finishing is not without reproach (but for the price, could it be otherwise?) And the original strings that are worthless.
    - Have you tried many other models before acqurir? Some low of friends, quickly, but none that I could buy for 100, then a has no intrt. I would just say that if ct Obviously sound of a real 1962 Precision sounds better ^ ^ ct ergonomics, I found this bass at least as enjoyable to play than anything I could try.
    - How do you report qualitprix? Simply unbeatable. Obviously the quality is not that of a Fender Japan, but for 98 (which is ridiculous) even when it was all a trick done dcent.
    - With the exprience, you do again this choice? As this is a bass for beginners, and given the budget I wanted to put, yes, definitely.

    Originally it ... way, it sounds you need for a low of less than 100 €, but the trick is that it has potential: once with a string of games is going well, and settings that go well ... beautiful!

    SOUNDS

    It was settled at once both versatile and easy-to-slapper. Basically I need to be careful not to make curling but otherwise it's a wonder! In fact, she impressed some sellers Stras ... Harley Benton not only makes good guitars but also I was fortunate to fall on the model that sounds good!
    It does not with HB 20W amp which is really nothing. But two months since I played on a Fender Rumble 100 and this amp so much that improves the comparison with real Jazz Bass to hurt vendors mentioned above! For now no need to pedal and preamp, amp settings are enough for me and playing with both pickups and the tone knob there is a well defined. Pickup at the bottom and the rest to zero have a well that even a metal drummer does not unleashed! Neck pickup tone and bottom 75% is a well rounded and warm! And the "very bottom" to try to play the Flea! As against the knob of tone tends to interfere if you put a bottom.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been almost a year I have and I'm still happy! I started with and I Perfect with ... I'm not about to part with it! The side is really nice to have a low price / quality ratio literally unbeatable!
    After that, everything is relative, it is still not a low premium and not even approaching brands such as Rickenbacker, Musicman and Warwick. Notament in terms of gameplay. But the essential and it is not ridiculous! Especially since I removed the pick guard that I found too ugly ...
    I did not try a lot of bass before buying it but after! And the more it goes, the more I said I would buy a high quality that until later and this one is enough.
    With the experience I do not know if I bought the same ... downside: no prestige! I think I would build on the mid-range type or C4 Cort Ibanez BTB 550 ... but as a beginner you just close your eyes to go! And what is about is that I do not regret a single moment!

    It seems like an Asian. I bought this pack: https://www.thomann.de/fr/thomann_bass_set_b7.ht, the information on the website (Sorry but I do not know all its characteristics.: X) I can not put a note higher, since I never tested the other low, if not that of a guitar teacher friend who is an antique ^ ^

    UTILIZATION

    Personally handle, nothing to say, a good slide on it, and you can play for a couple of hours without suffering. : P To form, and bah is a Fender Jazz bass type eh, weight and fairly well balanced, and it is not so heavy, you can play with the strap problems. Access to acute, not complain, it's not the most used notes, but no need to be a contortionist to get there. : …

Access to acute, not complain, it's not the most used notes, but no need to be a contortionist to get there. : D After the sound, as stated above, I is not had the chance to try other basses, but the piece I played really resembles the original piece, you close your eyes and ... THE FLEA! And no it's me bah. x)

    SOUNDS

    I play a bit of everything, and it fits pretty well, it's versatile, and if we play well with the tone and the equalizer amp, you will want. :) (I remember that my amp is supplied in the pack: https://www.thomann.de/fr/harley_benton_hb40b.htm)

    OVERALL OPINION

    His will made 3 months now I use my first bass, and I am perfectly satisfied. In addition she has a mouth, it's a juggernaut, but is light in when you play the strap, the very serious note, it will shake the beast, that limit exciting. : D for low to even 100 €, it is not to say it is really great, I advise to beginners, there are really enough to make noise. : D And of course the melody. : P Of course I'll probably grow and change one day, but I choose to do it again with pleasure. It gives a bad image of the brand, but I greatly appreciate. But I repeat myself, I'll advice.
