I had been seeking an electric upright bass that has beautiful arco sound and playability same as contrabass.
This bass has very strong originality, very unique head design, reverse peg layout.
But material is orthodox, real spruce sound board, neck joint same as contrabass, fine ebony fingerboard, nice quality Aubert à Mirecourt bridge, excellent velvet compass strings.
Is sound is real contrabass arco sound.
I think it is depend on the fine spruce sound board and the Schertler mic.
It's spruce sound length is 108 cm, like a contrabass
It is completely different to fishman or underwood.
This model has tournee option that is removable neck joint.
Very compact bag, it's length is 115cm.
