Love this riff machine

The Edster 27.05.2025

Sounds great straight out the box. Intonation spot on. Don't ask me why, but I find myself playing hard with a pick and getting a big sound out of it through my Harley Benton DNAfx GiT Core

The colour, which I think of as UK fire-engine red, and the white binding, is just spectacular. I got the Ernie Ball black and white check strap to go with it and the overall effect is fairly excellent. I mean, I'm still the same barely-capable player I ever was, but it feels epic.

Took me a couple of weeks to summon up the courage to do a bit of a set-up, which lowered the action a little (but not too much, not when I'm digging in with a pick), and it improved the feel for my playing. I'm making it sound like all I'm doing is thrashing it through distortion, but it's actually a lovely sounding instrument. Love it

Great semihollow bass for the price!

WILCOX 24.09.2025

The bass is very well finished, paint is nice and smooth. No remarkable flaws detected, is very well costructed. Sound is what you have to expect from a passive bass. It is comfortable to play and it worths de price!

Très sympa a prendre en main, les mécaniques sont bien, elles ont l'air de tenir l'accords, j'ai vu pire une squier vinted modified. le manche est agréable et pour l'instant , il est bien droit, on verra dans le temps. sur le model que j'ai reçu, les frettes sont nickel, je n'ai même pas a y retoucher, je suis très étonné !! bon les cordes sont a changer, je pense que je vais mettre des filets plats, pourtant, je préfère les filets rond, mais comme elle est semi acoustique, j'aime pas trop le bruits des filets ronds. je pense que je vais changer aussi le micro par un delano, forme musicman a gros plot. en attendant, je vais essayer avec un preamp ampeg analog bass !! sinon, le seul truc chiant, c’est l'attache pour la sangle derrière le manche, la basse est déséquilibrée :-( , ça penche vers l'avant, alors le poids est de 3.7 kg !! le petit plus, j'ai réussi a descendre le chevalet pour avoir une action très basse des cordes, sans que cela frise, ce qui fait que l'on peu même slapper, si on veut,

die Saitenauf dem Bass hab ich sofort gewechselt auf Flat ...die Saiten ab werk grenzen an Körperverletzung....nun klingt er sehr gut...
