Great value
The first one I ordered turned up badly damaged,no fault on Thomann’s behalf who gave excellent service it was down to some rough handling on its journey to me.Thomann replaced it very quickly and were faultless throughout the whole process.this Bass is great value,the spec and finish is superb,I’m little disappointed with the pre amp,it works ok but for the range of sounds it supplies it seems very over complicated and un intuitive I feel a simple volume and tone for each pick up and an Active Passive switch would be preferable,it’s very similar in sound to some of the Ibanez basses it competes with but for me personally looks even better.I can see me upgrading the pickups at a later date to something more premium as the body and neck definitely justify upgrading the electrics at some point.feels very modern and compact compared to my P and J basses too which is nice.

Great bass, but there is a catch
Overall, it's a great instrument! I usually play funk and rock, this bass totally gets the job done. Double humbucking system was a great idea, there's no background noise whatsoever. I don't mind having a Boeing control panel on my guitar, but it takes time to learn what each knob does.
I really like the shape, sound and feel the bass gives to you while you are playing. I never used it for a gig, but I frequently use it for recording and rehearsals.
I have two problems with the bass:
1. Frets are sharp on the edge. My hands didn't bleed or anything, but when you jump around the fretboard it hurts. It's a quick fix, you just need to polish them. But it's a shame frets' edges are unpolished from the box.
2. Bass makes weird noises when you put the active circuit on. Maybe it's just my model, but I have had issues with some loud and squeaky noise coming from the bass. I have no clue how to fix it, but I am still a happy user of this bass and I won't be changing it.
