average finish quality but the quality-price ratio is very interesting. good sensation after adjusting the neck (it was a bit buzzing) still need to acquire a good amp to tell you a bit more. not disappointed with my first approach with this instrument

Entry-level acoustic bass, but it does the job very well. Nice finishes, the sound is good even if it sometimes distorts, but at this price to start without hassle it's ideal ;) Really satisfied with my purchase :)

Well received this very good bass. The question now is: which cover or case to buy to take it? If someone can inform me, it would be very kind. Thanks in advance!

Yes, I would also like to know about the case because it will wear out without it. And for the sound quality, I would like to have some reviews please ;)

Bassist, I chose this acoustic bass to be able to play quietly at home, and take it out for rare acoustic concerts. It's a budget model that does the job, with a nice look on top of that. Well, there isn't an extraordinary volume in acoustic mode either: it quickly gets drowned out by the acoustic guitar. So to play with guitars, a small amplification is necessary. The built-in tuner is a nice plus. Delivered without a case, don't forget to add one if you need to transport it. There are indeed 2 hooks for a possible strap.

The bass looks good, in terms of sound, it is not extraordinary, but given the price range, I'm not sure you can find better elsewhere. Not a fan of the feel of the strings, moreover it buzzes a bit. But I think with new strings and a neck adjustment, it should get better. In conclusion, I do not regret my purchase
