24 frets
Handle Saddle
2 active humbuckers Yamaha
Bridge stadard, mechanical 2 * 2, acastillage dorbr /> 4 knobs:
- Volume
- Acute
- Serious
- Mlangeur between the two microphones
handle very enjoyable, very natural finish (no polish??) as a dialectic on my guitar yamaha elsewhere.
blue / green painted like "flame top". Look a little prtentieux I find I like things simple!

UTILIZATION

Channel enjoyable
Access in acute easier (at least until the 20 th case)
Ergonomics: RAS
Low pluttlgre
we obtain easily the sound is sought, not too personally I touch the acute / grave, I do prfre rglages on the amp. The button "mlangeur" ​​between the two microphones can rglage an easy type of sound.
Ngatif point: one of the knobs (one volume that is DIFFERENT from other for that matter) + seems fragile and turns quite freely ...
The battery is easily changed by derrire.

SOUNDS

I play a little bit of everything and a lot of nothing: D I'm the guitarist and bass is just me having fun from time to time, I'm not too fond of a particular style, prference nanmoins for rock and reggae that this bass is well suited, and jazz there are better o Contents of bass!
In my humble opinion, I find that this lack of personal ct low sound, which gives it the advantage of being nanmoins ASEZ versatile.
The slam agus well, the sound lacks a bit of roundness. The neck pickup is trs good, the bridge pickup is a little cold I got.
Even if I am in no slap, I think it lends itself well this bass, a violin perspective I do not know (lack of experience and technical), but a his point of view yes.
I use as an Ashdown amp AfterEight: 15watts, 8 inches => good sound, while remaining fairly prcis warm, perfect for my room

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 2.5 years (I think ...), I do not play that often trs, not that it dplaise me, but I am first and foremost guitarist.
I like the look (but no more), I love the neck pickup and the neck + bridge rglage. Versatility is his strong point I think, a sound all that honorable, a violin treated.
However I find that as the view that its look, this guitar lacks personality and not enough on its roundness, a bit too sharp (correctable on bass and the amp).
In my case, the ratio quality price is unbeatable: I had this bass for half the price (almost ...) parcequ'elle falls silent in the shop and had some gratinures so I made the case of century!
O the price I pay270 new), I would not have bought a low quality infrieure well, I do not regret my purchase. In the normal price range of this bass, I want a bass more "jazzy", especially with more of a personality standpoint and a more sober look.
CCL: Good instrument.
