SOUNDS

- They are suitable to your style of music?

The sound is not typical of metal (usually the bass is rather there to "wallpaper" guitars, but after all I found the sound I was looking for

- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?

A compressor and a stack markbass

- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?

The sound is very full in mediums, no problem out of a mix. I play metal guitar with a saturated and a double bass drum, no problem to get along with a nice presence in the mids. The sound is extremely accurate, does not bleed at all.

- What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?

I like the sounds right and accurate, this is exactly the strong point of this bass, even if by pushing a few settings and rinsed with ropes, they can sound more dirty.

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?

2 years

- What is so special that you like most and least?

The sound, ergonomics and the look (there is staff) are the strengths of the low
The price can be prohibitive, on the other hand. Genant point is that you can not get all kinds of strings on this bass. FYI es Elixir Nanoweb wound tapper go nickel.

- Have you tried many other models before buying it?

I tried a lot of shovels, I had Korean (Peavey, Ibanez, Shine): ca does not play at all in the same category. I found the same comfort of a Ritter, but the sound was radically different.

- How would you rate the quality / price?

Good, but it's still expensive, as any low craftsman

- With experience, you do again this choice? ...

Yes 100%
