Attention is given a Baritone guitar an octave below a normal guitar

UTILIZATION

The action is a bit high (but as a bass player base that does not impede me at all)
CHAC is not in acute gnial (but for my part I do not care because I never get so high, it is especially the heel of the credit union that is Gnant)
Ergonomics is not bad (but it's not a Fender either)
I love the sound of the bridge pickup (though dry, Dfine, it reminds me of the Rickenbacker bass sounds), the neck pickup is much less Dfine and the volume is less that comes out (to play low it goes but no more)

SOUNDS

It's perfect, it allows me to play bass and be able to spend ACORDS very easy as well as the arpges and much more comfortably than on a basse.Son sound distortion is frankly aggressive (especially on the bridge pickup). I think she sounds better on a bass amp than on a guitar (but this is personal)
I play in a band with an electronic violin and electric guitar, and it really allows me all the freedom (rhythmic riffs solos arpges)
The sound is Siple gnial it's plug and play ...

OVERALL OPINION

Excellent quality price
