MGR/Manolon « Washburn XB 500 »
Published on 02/15/04 at 15:00I got this bass in Greece. While touring with my band, I was looking for something professional and cheap enough, the golden combination, you might think. Well, YES, it is!!! I paid an equivalent to 700 USD for this lovely piece of art. It is a 5-strings and responds to every single touch.
This bass a quite a piece. From the moment you see it you literarily cannot take your eyes off it. The personality of the sound is enormous and that B at the top is really potent!!! Many cabs can tell you how they have suffered because of the ultralow frecuency of this babe.
The unit should have a separated bridge control for each string to avoid "transmission".
This is very solid indeed!!! You feel the real man "wearing this babe. Yet, it is stylish enough to put you as the core of attraction in concerts. My fellow bass players say it is one of the greatest combination of sound and beauty in the market.
Give it a try. It is superb!!!!
