Short scale, high quality

Babryzze 11.02.2024

I had an injury that made playing a long scale bass uneasy, so I decided to try out a short scale. The great features come along with great looks and a good sound.
First things first. Its sound is thick, loud and clear, but kinda vintage for my taste. With the right gear though, it works the way I want. Don't let my 4-star rating make you dislike it. It's a matter of taste alone, go one and give it a try.
Now, about the quality of built. It's a really great instrument, not really heavy yet not quite light, with a comfortable neck and fretboard. Its tuners and bridge are stable and the woods appear to be of a good quality. If it had a different brand name on the headstock, it would be one of the best MIM models.
Last but not least. If you are afraid that a shorty would look tiny on you, then fear not about that bass. The bridge is higher on the body than usual, so this feature makes it look as big as a standard P bass.
Overall, this is a pretty decent instrument with lot of character!

Sounds so good for the price

Absolutely love it! I kept coming across videos and reviews on YouTube and finally got the chance to try it—and I have no regrets. It has a unique, old-school tone that I instantly fell in love with! After putting on LaBella flats, it sounded even better. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a short-scale bass with a classic, vintage vibe.

Tolles Instrument

Der Bass kam gut verpackt an, Danke Thomann.
Der Basd besticht durch eine gute Verarbeitung, mir ist nichts negatives aufgefallen. Lediglich die Saitenlage musste ich für mich anpassen.
Der Sound ist klasse und setzt sich im Bandgefüge super durch, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Hörbeispiele gibt es auf YouTube zu Genüge.
Toller Bass für den Preis, klare Empfehlung
