In which country was it made? (USA, Japan, Mexico, France ...): That of Made in China! But the quality is top, metal paint very good, thick, ultra bright, the assembly is strictly flawless ... Very good violin ... They have provided the care is of high quality. It is a handle of a piece but that does not conduct contrary to what is sometimes visible on the internet. It's a shame it would have been a plus for this low price is why I am not 10. That said, he did not at all disturbed for 1 year.

How many frets, what kind of microphone and their configuration? 24 Jumbo frets, nut with graphite. There is no fret 0. The pickups are "Jazz Bass" brand "IGF technologies" with active electronics (9 volts). Level setting, there is a general issue, with a balance between the two microphones. 1 EQ Bass and Treble EQ, nonparametric (which is not a concern here, the frequencies being very popular). Strictly no breath, even at the bottom.

</ul>

UTILIZATION

<ul>

The handle is it nice? This was the great surprise and one parameter that made me want to buy it from me. I wanted a 5 string. The string spacing is perfect for me, as is the same as my Ibanez Soundgear 800. The strings are very low, it is all very impressive because it does not frieze, even though the supporting notes. It is a very fast neck, back and polish is the key (Rosewood). Very nice. No concern from the point of view access to acute ... even at the 24th fret.

</ul>

<ul class="ul">

Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)? Ideal. Not too heavy for a 5 string, and well balanced ... you are playing or sitting on stage.

</ul>

<ul>

The sounds are very good, no matter which amp you play, regardless of the setting. Very good dynamics, very clear treble and bass very deep ... Even with ropes tired it sounds good. This bass is very versatile although originally typed Metal.

</ul>

<ul>

The batteries must be replaced frequently (3 months) so I changed my Ibanez which takes much longer. So you always have a spare battery in case ...

</ul>

SOUNDS

<ul class="ul">

Are they suitable for your style of music? "I play everything, and yes, it is very versatile. I do not play pick, but either the fingers or slap, tapping, while nickel spring.

What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)? Was the sound you want very quickly. Hyper lens, even with strings of several months ... or heavy, very heavy ...

With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play? I use a Hartke 30 watt home. Sounds good in the treble, but lacks depth. I also have a Fender BXR 100W, which is correct in the midrange and bass and treble at medium. So sometimes I mix 2 to get a wider range ... But I tried it on a Trace Elliot 300watt Dual Body ... It was amazing ... Big sound, very defined.

</ul>

OVERALL OPINION

<ul>

For how long have you been using it? Since almost a year, I am 100% satisfied.

I have tried other top models in store, type MusicMan 5-String ... The settings Fernandes are much more suitable to my research.

What is your opinion about the value for the price? Newfoundland worth it in the 1000 € which is justified in view of the violin, electronics, microphones ...

I had always cheaper used then, yes, at this price, I would not hesitate if it was redone.
