I never played on 5 string before, and this is my first.

I can say as a novice for novices:

- B string sounds good.

- Materials quite good

- Electronics is OK

- There is an opportunity change the character of sound - more heavy or "warm".

- Balance not ideal, its at the neck side. But not critical.

- Sting spacing less then any 4 string bass, pay attention on this!

- Pots, looks weak, now its ok. Don't know how long they will work properly.

- Tuning machines keep tunning well.

- Paintwork is good on my exemplar, looks great!

I feel pleasure when I play on this bass. Perhaps it's one of the best for this price.
