Best value: Excellent
Korean manufacturing.
24 frets
Channel crossing
Two volume knobs (one for each type of micro JB).
A pre-amp volume knob, tone.
An active-passive switch.

UTILIZATION

Very good 5 string bass entry level.
Effective integrated pre-amp.
A little "soft knee" in passive mode but can be compensated by an external pre-amp (Behringer for me).
Channel a bit narrow for a five-string for slappeurs but agrees that all at the finger-picking.
Featuring one of the first models, the battery change gives some sweating (not less than six screws to remove and reassembly is scabrous (fixing columns pre-amp on the plate).
The following models have been modified with a trap dedicated to the stack.
Very good value for money

SOUNDS

Oriented "walking bass".
Therefore adapted to Soul and Jazz (very poorly suited to Rock).

OVERALL OPINION

10 years of loyal service.
Marine hardware indestructible.
Good violin.
I would do the same choice for the first five strings.
