It has the same CHARACTERISTICS his older sister (who has only four strings).
The particularity of this bass is: it plays like a traditional low but it changes when you want MODEL slecteur a grace and a big numrique treatment.

It is made in Korea, possde handle fairly strait in Saddle with 21 frets, traditional but no micro piezo pickups in the bridge and when the rglage has a selector MODEL, a button for double bass and rgler Aiges, slecteur a virtual microphone (front / rear) and a rglage volume.
It has the possibility to save our rglages.

UTILIZATION

The neck is super enjoyable, it glides on its own (almost too much, when there is stage fright). It is a pleasure to play vritable above and the notes come out by itself (I have the problem of "frisoti" as on my 4 string) on the other hand, it is super heavy: I am 110kg and sometimes in the end rpt (3h), I posses good despite a good strap molton ...

CHAC is simple to DIFFERENT MODELS even if it takes a little time to assimilate dsignations trs rglages compact and are as natural as a traditional bass.

The form is trsdcevante, I love beautiful objects if possible with a personality that is the rat: it does not even look like a bass, it's just a standard guitar and the color it sional disco: it shines everywhere.
However due to the lack of micro and double button Tone the facade is pure ...

As for the cover, it is perfect for low (soft with a big REMBOURAGE) but lack of space for partitions and in my case, the POD (the same brand) without any PForm. ..

SOUNDS

I do not know what is my 4-string (Ibanez SounGear 500) but comparatively, I felt like turning pro. When I find the right amp in rglage rpt, I spend a MODEL and the other with happiness for tantt snapping sound of the Doobie Brothers, tantt sound fat (Vaa Con Dios) or even the feeling of having to play a fretless Hey You.

I find the notes Aiges super clean (I like) on the other hand, I have the opinion of an expert on 5-string bass to see if the rope is good or not if I have a lot of ill make it sound ...

The majority of electrical MODELS are seeing trs well (knowing that I never imitate jou on low), the MODEL 2 * 5 strings for trs INTERESTED to the extent of Manir occassionnelle, however I have a hell of a play with the acoustic bass and against-the synths are fun basse.Et 5 minutes ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 months and I'm always happy when I play with.

I think for the purists or the pros, the invoice processing numrique Coren and will never replace vritables MODELS 24, but
- I am not strong enough to realize it
- I do not nonplus afford the 24 MODELS
- I can play with my friends on any style of music, I always agree what a bass without the need for a truck to go to rpt
- And then ... lectroniciens I am, I am quite impressed with his face hidden ...
