Jól és könnyen beállítható hangszer. A phat II elektronika kicsit alulmúlta a várakozásaimat, a magasakat és a presence-et nem emeli ki

Mam ju doma, ked na nu natiahnem nove struny tak ma celkom fajn zvuk, asi tak 70% lepsi ale inak by som ju na take funky, ci jazz veci neodporucal, skor asi na tvrde.. hmatnik je pomerne uzky, pre niekoho mozno vyhoda, snimace, nic moc... a tie potenciometre tiez nesu najlepsie vymyslene, ale spravena je dobre, len slaby zvuk, ja by som si teraz radsej priplatil na squier 5 strunovu basu...

I have it at home, when I put new strings on it, it has a pretty good sound, about 70% better, but otherwise I wouldn't recommend it for funky or jazz stuff, more for hard stuff... the fingerboard is quite narrow, for someone maybe an advantage, pickups, not much... and those potentiometers are not the best ones, but it's well made, just weak sound, I would rather pay for a squier 5-string bass now...
