RB-414BK Classic Series : Weak Highs but Great Lows

3 years ago

The E string sounds great once the bridge has been properly adjusted, but the higher strings come out extremely muffled.

Said bridge is also quite finicky, using loose rollers that you need to watch out for when you're changing the strings.

If you can get past those niggles, it's a solid RB copy and quite fun to play once the pickup cover has been removed.

The only thing I can say about its construction is the nut on mine was very loose and was actually sitting on a small crack. A couple of dabs of wood glue sorted all that.

Not really a bass for someone who isn't willing to put in a bit of work on the upkeep of their instrument, but decent for anyone else.
