Ibanez PCBE12MH-OPN

I didn't expect too much from a bass in this price range, but i was very pleased when i got this in my hands. This bass is very easy to play and suits well in my arms as the body is quite small. The sound is as big and rich as it can be acoustically and with some tweaking with my amps eq, i could get very good sounds out of it. The quality of the craftmanship, hardware and electronics are good and i love the mahogany finnish. The package included a tool to adjust the neck rod and a spare bridge. This was a nice suprise. All in all - i keep taking this bass to my arms pretty often. Juts to have some fun with it. Nice toy and practice bass!

I use it home for practice. It is my first acoustic. I play a jazz bass for years. I find it easy to play, the neck is thicker than JB, the body is not very comfortable for me as i am used in electric basses. The volume of sound unplugged is very low for playing with someone else. The quality if the instrument is very good. The sound is very good plugged or unplugged. Also it records very good with pickup. Very good keys.
Con: Thomann do not sell the black ibanez strings of this bass. There are some buzzes if you play hard. The tuner is slow.
I recomend the bass, there is a lot of insument in very low price.
