I do not know what country it is manufactured
24 frets 2 active pickups, active preamp uses 2 x 9 volt
A volume balance between a micro 1bass a treble a parametric medium (with selection of a frequency boost or attenuate)
very comfortable handle any problem from 4 to 5 strings

UTILIZATION

The neck is just perfect I can slapper on the string of stifling the middle and if the thumb of my left hand without any problem
access to acute box is easily even if it is not the most important for a bass.
I love the shape of happiness is really my girlfriend is jealous! and is light enough.
the sound is fairly simple to find and it is not bad at all.

SOUNDS

It is suitable for almost any style rock metal funk soul ...
I play with more purpose with a big muff, a synthesizer, a compressor Jacques, and a digitech distortion from home.
Record new to the amp I play on a Hartke VX3500 and also from time to time on a fender rumble100

I can get almost any sound I want but can be a little flat for her rather jazz

I like pretty sound it but after 4 years of use I perceive more faults which notably a lack of heat little

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years now I bought a used affien (thank you to him I do not know) I paid 450 euros so my value for money is unbeatable I have seen was in perfect condition my only regret since I got it secondhand for not choosing the color (I wood like in the photo) otherwise I will have bought in a color slightly more flashy (like red or pink)
