I finally managed to grab one of these due to saving cash on not having to commute during the lock down and I'm so glad I did. I wanted an acoustic 5 string but one that was practical in size, the Thinline is thin enough to be comfortable and practical to play but still gives a warm round sound as you would hope. The guitar itself is beautifully built and was set up perfectly with great action. Overall great look, feel and sound

I bought it as my first acoustic bass, curious what it's like to play that kind of instrument. SOUND: This bass isn't as loud as i thought, but it's louder than a 3 times more expensive Takamine acoustic bass, so it's pretty neat. The sound is clear and refined, altough there is a little fret buzz when you'll attack the string with more force. After plugging in to an amp it still has some acoustic tone, altough not as good as amplifying the sound through the microphone. It's pretty well built for the price, altough on mine there's a little bit of tiny ditches on the side of neck, but it's ok. My biggest issue was when i removed it from the box, guitar was covered in shavings. Fortunetely after brief cleaning it's fine. And i need to cover an issue, that some people before me...

Beautiful instrument. The build quality is impeccable. As with all acoustic basses the volume is low when not amplified. This surprised me as the body appears bigger and this in itself is the only issue I would have with the instrument - I struggle to get my right arm around the body and as a result the playability is a bit uncomfortable. Other than that I am very happy with the instrument. Just one side issue - the choice of strings available for acoustic 5 strings is quite limited so maybe look into this before buying.
