    I have this bass for about 2 1/2 years and I still love playing it.
    The neck is pretty beefy, bass heavy enough, but with a good strap, no worries and is very comfortable. The pickups are not Delanos Sandberg and on my version. They are quite complementary. The P handle for big sound pretty old school, especially in passive and I add the M bridge for a more defined and end. I only use for ever against the bridge pickup alone, matter of taste. Level equalization, while flat in assets and liabilities in the middle tona.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is very nice and also the maple on the back is quite nice with a very nice color.
    No problem head itchy. The whole is very well standing …

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is very nice and also the maple on the back is quite nice with a very nice color.
    No problem head itchy. The whole is very well standing as sitting.
    All adjustments to give sth totally usable.
    I put 9 because the bridge pickup alone does nothing for my taste. But it makes perfect sense combined with the neck pickup.

    SOUNDS

    I use it with an ashdown amp and speaker markbass.
    It works nickel.
    I put the net Thomastiks flat, it has given him a second life and character is perfect for me.
    All flat on bass and amp. I just touch on the bass amp to the next room.
    The neck pickup sounds great through a lamp. It pierces the mix as nothing.

    In my opinion, it is very suitable for funk, soul, rock. Some jazz purists by going against him a little worse.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The day I bought it, I tried a Fender Precision with same config microphone. The sandberg, yet cheaper than the Fender, buried his grain by the precision, comfort, the feeling ...

    Very good value for money.

    If I had to have only low, it would be this one.

    Low German
    Active or passive choice
    22 frets
    Channel Saddle
    Micro Dlano, a simple to handle and a double in bridge.

    UTILIZATION

    Discoveries I have this brand there shortly and I trs t surprised. We believe a big jou Jazz Bass, but the handle is imprssionnant particulirement enjoyable to play (no problem for SLAP). It is a bit heavy, May regulars Fender warwick or not notice it. I found the original strings a little too buoyant, it may be enough to change the tyrant.

    SOUNDS

    This bass is the perfect compromise between big sound from brand new and well hold school. It's simple I do a lot of musical styles, from funk, dub, rock and hip-hop, it goes everywhere. A go…

    This bass is the perfect compromise between big sound from brand new and well hold school. It's simple I do a lot of musical styles, from funk, dub, rock and hip-hop, it goes everywhere. A good amp is recommended in order to operate well, and c happiness, one branch, a ring and c all, nothing more. With a good qualisation, has become the very first time ... amazing that I tried on a small c'tait Ampeg BA115 ..... love at first sight. imagined on any of the big lamp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had beginners in May, and I tried low before it. I am a big fan of Fender or Warwick, but for the heavy must pay the price. This is affordable MODEL (includes jme, do not have the high end esprer a 600E) and allows plenty of Audible. It's a choice I do not regret. I advise you to everyone.
