Cons:
- Made in China. Unfortunately easy to tell at first glance.
- Difficult to tune. For a fretless, tune needs to be accurate. I find the build-in tuner useless for this and it takes crazy amounts of winding to make small changes in cents.
- Manufacturer sloppiness. For example the E-string on my model has to little string to tune it down to D. I know, easy fix, yet a concerning sign of sloppiness in the making.
Pros:
- Sound. It sounds astonishing! Lovely double bass feel.
- Dimensions. Way more comfortable than a u-bass and very familiar for guitarists. Sets for a smooth transition.
- Strings. I love the rubber strings in general as they are kind to the fingers, but they are surprisingly slide friendly as well.
- Design. Depends what you like of course. But I find the design very simple and clean.
Conclusion:
I'm that impressed by sound and playability alone that I surely recommend it. Yet, the cons listed above are somewhat annoying to me. I feel like there would be a market for similar instruments in a more pricey version to make it the highly prestigious instrument I think it deserves to be.
