This Thomann 33AS is a surprisingly capable 5-string bass for the price. The 3/4 size makes it a great choice for younger players or those who prefer a more compact instrument, and the solid wood construction gives it a mature, resonant tone. It's a solid entry point into the world of 5-string double basses.

Frequently Asked Questions

The neck profile is generally described as a comfortable C-shape, suitable for a variety of hand sizes and playing styles, though individual preferences will vary.
The Low B string is reasonably well-integrated, but as with any 5-string bass, careful setup and potentially a soundpost adjustment may be needed to minimize any wolf tones.
The build quality is respectable for the price point; the finish is functional and protective, although it’s a simple satin finish and lacks the complexity of more premium instruments.
