Crolé
« Maybe THE best bass in the world! »
Published on 11/14/11 at 08:17Everything has been said above ... I said that the German manufacturing (which explains the price: € 2044 to the latest news on Thomann ... € 1,971 by negotiating two seconds from the importer Lyon)
UTILIZATION
I had to ask the store to bring me to try it (they do not have in stock. We do not find occasion: the few products are carefully guarded !!!): pleasant surprise: The neck is much thinner (and therefore easy to play +) $ $ as the handle screw. The contact of wood not varnished (beeswax provided in the User kit) is a little strange but you get done quickly.
Quite honestly I did not see much difference with his $ $ wooden handle screwed "normal" (€ 1,388 on the latest news Thomann) but I still bought: She is more beautiful! (Yes, it's not pro as a criterion, but I enjoyed myself).
SOUNDS
Me I immediately changed the strings (as on my old bass): Dunlop for Mi and The ghs and for Re and Sol (and I have a warm, non-metallic and the Mi The sound and farting good for the slap on the Re and Sol ... for all the world awake in the middle of an old blues).
To emphasize this I dropped the next two microphones "ropes" (just tighten a little more).
I put the balance in the middle, treble and bass in background)
I play an Ampeg BA 115 600 W, it tears his race!
OVERALL OPINION
it's been a week since I have (but it's been two years since I dream).
I had tried many other models: it sounds much more "hot" as the Music Man and slap the spring as well (provided you put the two knobs microphones down (double coil in parallel).
So this is the most versatile: it can play everything (blues, rock, jazz, fusion ...) without having to change settings.
There's more to enjoy!
I get up at night to play it serious?
