Superb instrument, I have always found it difficult to properly amplify my acoustic double bass. The sound of acoustic basses is much deeper and richer. But most of the time, what makes it incredible does not manifest when you play with a microphone and an amp, unless you have an excellent sound engineer with you and amazing equipment. This instrument is a good alternative to experiment with effects pedals for example and play with friends excited about distortion.
