UTILIZATION

correct playability even with my small hands. no worries.

SOUNDS

The pick-ups: arffff, don't forget that this is a low, low price.
Now if I compare two more active basses than I have (and curbow Cort Cort Artisan) the preamp, the pots and connectors .... it is "cheap" ....
The first one I got from my friend Thomann: sound interruptions when I get to the end of the bass knob, + same with cracking nuts on the chassis jack.
Thomann guaranteed, as usual, and shipped quickly for a second. More crunches, but still cuts its balance during a concert. Long live the low relief that I had taken.
The knob of bend between the two microphones: not as obvious difference .... it seemed to me symbolic.
then returned to its original box and return to sender!

OVERALL OPINION

So end of the adventure.
a beautiful object (if one does not look very close finishes, but again, at this price ....)
Ultimately, low exercise at home or in the garage again with friends from high school ..?

For one who has no problem on his own, look good on stage.
I had a lot of bass in their hands, and this is the first product that problem size!

I will not repeat this choice: I'm going to put 150 or 200 euros at the end, and see entries ranges Yam, Ibanez or another. Or give the money to a luthier to revise my Curbow is a gem of a sound and comfort.
