Frequently Asked Questions

The semi-solid construction means it’ll be a bit more focused and less ‘airy’ than a fully hollow model, but the spruce top still provides a good amount of warmth and projection.
Thomann’s workshop setup is generally good, but a quick check and possible bridge adjustment by a luthier is always a worthwhile investment to optimize playability.
The construction feels surprisingly robust for the price point; it’s clearly built to a decent standard, although you won’t find the meticulous detail of a truly high-end, handcrafted bass.
