«  Certainly a good choice ... »

- Made in Indonesia, certainly in the factories who are working for Squier, Yam etc..
- Bridge Fender Vintage style but a bit thicker.
- Maple neck with reported head, rosewood fingerboard, 24 frets mediums, 40mm at nut.
- Swamp ash body (swamp ash)
- 2 humbuckers Cort assets.
- Knob volume, mic mix, 2-band active EQ.
- Mechanical lighter oil bath and take precise agreement, painted head.

9 / 10 because Tarcis trace of glue remain. (Head)

UTILIZATION

- Handle nice, fine, frets well posed, in the spirit JB, varnish soft and agreeable. Access to 24 boxes carefree, body-tail junction is refined, very comfortable.

- Very light weight, sound with knobs to 0 is very balanced.

- Practical side, the battery cover is easily operable, accessible and not overlooked. The truss-rod cover is accessible by removing just one screw.

- Impeccable ergonomics, all in rounded open pore ash kind very beautiful but fragile.

SOUNDS

Inevitably, this kind of small active bass lends a bit to all games. Spun with flat and low on a 15 "would yield a suitable sound dub reggae and other.

Rotos with steel and treble sound good for slamming slappeurs.

All games without excelling in any of them, of course ... at this price point.

If like me you play a little bit of everything, it can do as they say down MIDI vocabulary (And long live ... Bescherelle)

I play on 15 "or 4 * 12", it still sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

The finish quality is there: in E-armored plate, a sticker PEIT rubber to protect the preamp, a well-posed jack, cavities spent painting graphite, it is far from finishing the hard charged much more expensive among brands prestige with their founder died. Frankly, although well finished. No buzz, perfect landings (which was not the case on the Artisan Series C)

Sounds nice but not transcendent but flexible with electronics, strings, amp. With a forest side, however ... the wood is true for many, certainly. The downside: the open pore finish a bit weak ... But after the fashion of vintage, it is in the "distressed", right?? Mwarf!

It has for its round ...

Note: The original strings are all rotten.
