It's the second eub i own and this one really accomodate my playing. the
dots on the fingerboard help my intonation. the piezzo pickup is fantasic
You have 2 modes:
1 pizzicato playing with sustain.
2 arco or latin percussive sound.
The addition of a magnetic pickup give this bass a kind of fretless sound.
You can blend all the p.u. and equalize them with a 2 band eq.
The bass is mounted on a tripod and you can play in a fixed position sitting
or standing. The only complain is about the gig bag who seems to be too thin
more padding and an exterior compartment would be great.
It's one of the best eub you can buy it one if you like big sound low action
versatility.
