Unbelievable for price

Proggydave 16.08.2022

I play guitar and am trying to learn the piano/keyboards and also bass. Being left handed usually brings a quite big premium over right handed models let alone choice but Thomann have a great choice for us lefties at great prices. I chose this model for how versatile it seems to be for all types of music. I love prog, metal, rock, funk, pop and hope to be able to give all a go and sound ok with them all with this. Arrived within a week of ordering (UK) well packaged and undamaged. The finish is superb and the neck is lovely. All set up and ready to go out of the box and is relatively easy to play for a newbie like me. Very comfortable and not too heavy either. I don't have anything negative to say about it yet and hope not too either. Quality is top notch as was the service I received from Thomann. Hoping to be funking like the brilliant Julia Hofer soon 😁 Keep on rockin' and don't let anyone out you down. Peace and love

Wow...

I am blown away at the quality of this bass for the price.

The Good:
-sounds great
-neck is smooth and very comfortable
-the installed preamp sounds amazing for the price

The (few) negatives:
-small finish flaw on the headstock (not even worth photographing, rest of the finish was perfect)
- fret ends a little sharp (easy to fix on my end)
- Rosewood fretboard is super dry, picking up some lemon oil to treat it tonight.

All in all the negatives are few and minor, I would definitely buy this bass again and suggest it to others as it plays well and sounds great. If I didn't know what i spent on it, I would have guessed at least 2-3x the price.

Cheers

Would not buy it again

This is my name 03.02.2022

The product stopped working soon after I received it. It also arrived with a couple of scratches. It was one of the cheaper options for a reason.
