DB02-BEM Electric Double Bass : I like the instrument, but you cannot trust the bag it comes in.

For my first foray into the world of EDB, it seemed like a great idea. The "Wobbly Endpin" as others have said is annoying, but it is just a rod - you can buy rods in a lots of materials, diameters and lengths. I enjoy playing it and it sounds good to me

And on to the bag.....

It comes with a bag that seems of reasonable quality. It has several handles and a shoulder strap. Do not trust that shoulder strap.

The instrument is fairly heavy and quite tall. When the stitches on the shoulder strap snap - and they will, it will give at the top - at the back of your shoulder. The bass will fall backwards (you will not be able to catch it) though an angle of around 110-120 degrees. This means the headstock, even in it's bag, will fall about 7 feet and hit the ground. I had only had it 3 weeks. It's a dreadful design fault.
