Pretty and sound amazing

Great bass for everything, although very metal in this core for me at least.

Not very ergonomic, otherwise a very fine bass

In short, the bass is absolutely to die for : sound, looks, playability...if only it weren't for the edges. If you play like me, fingerstyle and with the bass in a medium position, you will see that the part of the body that comes in contact with the forearm is like a piece of furniture, not rounded at all. If one plays for a longer amount of time, this becomes bothersome.
