EHB1506MS-BIF : Great sound and playability, let down by poor QC .

4 years ago

This multiscale bass is very slick and comfortable to play. The Nordstrand pickups sound fantastic in both passive and active modes - plenty of warmth and definition. Overall, especially using the active preamp, this is an extremely versatile bass and can cover pretty much any genre.

However, while the bass is functionally good, the quality of fit and finish is poor. Mine has lots of unsightly white pore filler on the neck, as well as some cosmetic blemishes and a small chip next to the fingerboard. The volume knob was not properly attached.
