    Stagg BC300

    Stagg BC300Published on 07/15/04 at 15:00
    I purchased the stagg bass from an ebay auction for £87 for a beginning bass.

    The four strings are well spaced and is very simple to use for a beginner. As I started with a plectrum the bass was ideal - it was quite aggressive and easy to play with a pick. It looks pretty good and the colour (purple) was really suited.

    As it is a cheap begginer bass it lacks a lot of tone and has a lot of fuzzing on the first two frets of each string and from the 8th fret to the 13th frets on each string.
    The layout of the pickouts also was annoying. The neck was not very well built as it get getting out of shape and reverting to bad fuzzing.

    Cheaply manufactured, but still looks pretty good. Good for a beginner, but someone with experience it is a bit tacky and cheap. The input jack went within a month! Two strings stretched in 5 months!

    In summary I find the stagg BC300 to a brilliant bass for the beginner who wants to get to grips with bass playing - I wouldn't have purchased a different on to start with. However, if you have already got a bass or guitar go for something more expensive and better built.

    UTILIZATION

    Everything is very average, but it is relatively easy to play when you start.
    Standing it is light but the handle has a tendency to pitch down ... so do not let go!
    The sound is quite good the first few months ... but degrades over time (along with good considering the price we should not expect more)

    SOUNDS

    I have done with rock, considering the price I did not hesitate one bit to costumiser

    Good pack for beginners, small problem: the jack embrenchement the bass is very fragile!
    Otherwise, it runs everything you need to learn ki suitably cheap.

    this bass is fair and appropriate for START ;-)

    OVERALL OPINION

    A good bass for debuter.Le everything is solid and ergonomic.

    For beginners, I think it's better bass sound and light rather than a bass that would best microphone because he could change the microwave later and have a low quite suitable.

    Reasonable access to acute, there is not a torture to be reached, that said to play the 24 th on the E string it requires some dexterity and long fingers ...

    Very light, nice shape.

    We have no choice for the masses of sound, this said with a good amp that makes him pretty good

    SOUNDS

    Well I play everything, it goes from jazz, funk, rock, blues, .... same variety, it is not my main bass, and I defretté this bass after a new purchase to get me to the fretless.

    I play on a Ashdown MAG 300 with cab 4 * 10 of the same mark, the receiver is more than good I obtain something reasonable with this bass, I get a good sound fretless, round and warm, I can also go to push the medium and get closer to jaco sound, but hey I say get closer

    I think changing the pickups and MECHANICAL soon, it will save me buying a better fretless for a few more tps, bass violin is comfortable and reasonable it will not lose money, at worst, everything is recoverable then

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had it three months ...

    I dislike:
    microphones, a parasite that faith that mounts the tone a little, the wiring of the bass should be there also PCBS I think.

    The knobs are the big stew, and 3 were lame after 2 weeks, they do more, but it's good tjrs adjustable this is, but I'll also changed.

    The mechanisms of tuning are not terrible either, I had to tighten several times already!

    The lack of punch in the low, low output, even if the receiver fills this gap ...

    Like:

    the handle are weight, ease of play in general, its price.

    Basically apart the handle and it weighs it did not grd thing for her level money it is really only for those 180 euros ...

    I took this bass with a one ds store, the price gave me the eye ... I took it, play 5 minutes and left with was really optics ds tt to get back slowly, no need for a war machine for that!

    I would do the same choice ds the same context, upon a study of the optical instrument, resumed after a long stop, so no, there is better now for a hundred euros more
