    SOUNDS

    The combination microwave passive / active electronics allows for a very personal sound, but at the same time versatile (it sounds not just "metal" like lots of bass Ibanez), the sound is round and powerful in the bass and treble in the crystalline (settings in "default"), the slap sound is a joy, just set the double-knob of medium and presto!
    I play a Laney 160W amp transistors and with a multi effects boss ME50B, eq the bass I can adjust my sound without using equalizers of the receiver or multi effects, which is really handy! (And my cat eats my hand that's less convenient to type this review)

    OVERALL OPINION

    I think it's very versatile bass uen, more accurate sound and timbre achieved I really like, I think the violin is very beautiful and the finish (no paint or varnish) highlights the wood used . I find the price / quality ratio very good, I find it all successful models in the BTB, in fact, I have tried many models before you buy (notemment RG, BTB, some models cort JazzBass, précisionBass, LPbass ...) and for me this bass is an excellent compromise between a passive Fender Jazz and the sound of Metal Ibanez micro assets.
