The sound is good, it seems that the composite body makes it less rich and colder, but I admit that personally, I do not care a bit. The belt clip more auraientt be more bigs. The frets could be bigger for a more prcise intonation. There is a lgre dcoupe acute under the strings to facilitate the slap, but since I am not specialist in the style, I would not know if the game was easy, but hey, I guess so.Īs often in TRS Ibanez (G RG550EX a guitar too), while a t pens to facilitate the game If you plant it's your fault, not the instrument!

The neck is perfect, whatever you ask Manir hands on it.Īccs perfect all the hoops, including some 24 brands would do well to be inspired, including their guitars!Įxcellent ergonomics, the balance is perfect. Matriau composite body, I remember the name. Low gray feet the head, it's cool, it's class. I remake that choice without hsiter for numrs styles above (ct buying a jazz bass sound for "vintage") At the same time aa rnorm the advantage of not being subject to climatic conditions (humidity) Some may be "what a body rsine!" actually, it's not wood. I love her powerful, perfect for style funk / rock / mtal I note 8 / 10 because the bass is plutt directs contemporary music. We can model the equalizer from the bass, however, it is hard to find the sound of the 70es. The sound is full, powerful and excellent for slap. The sounds are oriented rock music today. The sound can be carved on the low (a good amp with a neutral rglage Just get the hell) The bass is heavier than lgrement wooden coffee (with a good strap, no worries) The rgonomie is excellent mainly due to diffrent dcoupes and dcochements (ACCS easy to acute dcochement spcial slap on the table) The handle end and trs trs is pleasant (very good varnish / coating). Body and handle Ergodyne (matriau is a composite, a rsine) An active preamp (bass, mid, treble) + 1 + 1 knob overall volume mix of microphones Electric Bass 4 strings, 24 frets (Asian manufacturing) It'd also definately be a highlight of any bass collection. Maybe it doesn't have the lowest tones, but for people who play multiple genre's of music and need a reliable bass, I'd say give it a try. It has active electronics, 3 piece maple neck with 24 fret medium fingerboard, 3-band EQ, and DHX pickups. This is definately a body bass, meaning it was designed with comfort to the human body in mind. The construction other than the faulty finish is excellent. Not as low as some of the other 4 strings I've played in it's range either, despite it's still a great one. I feel this is more of a studio bass that something you kill on stage! The body is easy to blemish and goes dull as soon as you finger prints touch it. Takes mass amounts of care in my opinion. The neck is easy to play, and against my surprise it stayed in tone the whole while I used it. It doesn't hit those punchy stomach lows like some of the other models, but it was really thick an I heard no break-up on some of my larger Mesa combos. Now to the tone, which is pretty standard for a 4 string. One of the good things about it is that even a smaller person like my son can even play this bass without discomfort because of it's shape and weight. The body also had a gorgeous grey/black eel look to it, which is indeed something that spawn envy. It's made of Luthite, which is unbelievably light, and provides a really nice tone. To tell you the truth I picked up this bass at first just because it looked good, but it was the feel of it that made me not want to put it down.

It runs around $500 at most shops, and is really good for that price. I actually bought this bass, unlike most of the basses that I just play around with in my store.

It's a beautifully made bass and just looks cool. It's one of those basses that no matter what level you are at.you pick it up and go.hey I can play this thing.

It was easily solved by using Rotosound Flatwound strings (the heaviest gage they have.I believe the E string was a 115.) The low end was like melodic thunder and I had no problem with buzzing at all. I had this problem aswell when I tried tuing my 4 string down to C. The one knock I've seen from people who like this bass is about the low end and having difficulties with the action. The sound is very versatile though I'm not sure how good it if for funk style playing. The bass itself is very light and fits perfectly against your body. I tried a few basses out including the Soundgear but this was the one I fell inlove with.įirst off, the neck is nice and small making it very easy to fly around the frets. I bought my bass in 1999 from Sam Ash for just under $500.
