Mooi afgewerkte en goed afgestelde basgitaar. De bespeelbaarheid is zondermeer goed te noemen, erg prettige (shortscale) hals en een fijne grote en niet te dikke body. De geluidsmogelijkheden zijn goed te varieren i.c.m. de toonknop en de plaats waar je speelt, zo kom je tot een behoorlijk scala aan geluidsmogelijkheden dus bruikbaar bij vele muziekstijlen. De bas klinkt mooi helder. Een aanrader zeker voor het geld want hij ziet er chiquer uit dan zijn prijs doet vermoeden. Jammer dat de gigbag niet op korte termijn leverbaar is want de bas heeft een hele specifieke maat waardoor hij niet in reguliere gigbags past.
