Comfortable, decent sound

Background: pro musician, shop owner, 10+ years playing bass.

Build quality:

-> Fit of the neck pocket was excellent. The paint finish was nice to the touch and thin yet protective. Fretwork was also nicely done. Impressed by the build quality.

Features:

-> Lightweight (3.6 kg). Comfortable neck. EQ and preamp options were actually usable. Deep cutaway, very easy access to higher frets.

Sound:

-> The sound was decent, but not good enough for me; sounded 'too flat'. To be fair, the sound quality for the price was decent. If you are not going to spend 500+ EUR, the sound is as good as it gets.

Overall quality:

At 298 EUR I recommend this bass for anyone looking for a lightweight, versatile bass.

Good quality for a cheap price

Very lightweight but still the sound quality is good. Just need some adjustment with the setup especially with the string action and it's all fine. I would really recommend this Bass for players who are just starting to learn bass and for small gigs.

Nice bass, factory action set-up is way too high

This bass plays like a guitar. Very flat body and shot neck, but the factory action is way to high to accommodate guar-like bass playing (which is kind'a why most people will probably want to buy this bass).
