RB-414CS Classic Series : Seriously impressed

4 years ago

This is a very nice bass! It really sounds close to the classic model it was inspired from. With a few effects (a little bit of drive and a fast tremolo), it feels like a Chris Squire tone.

I found 2 minor inconveniences, that might just be on my particular unit:

-There is a bit more ground hum than other basses with the same amp rig.

-There is a small notch on the top of the neck, at the 19th fret. It's hard to see but can be felt with a finger, but this is not a place where you would put your fingers anyway.

Otherwise, the neck is very well adjusted out of the box and frets are well cut / filed, no issue there.

Overall, I'm very happy
