Look at the other videos I did with this amp. Sadly, the camera mic didn't capture the rattles of the amp as I hoped. There's no need for your rudeness,, but, I'm sure you'll be happy to continue.

This bass is absolute garbage. It has no tone whatsoever, just loud. The support brackets are weak and wobbly and does not do the job for which they were intended. I bought the bass during the pandemic Aug. of 2020. I sold it by November. Luckily, I got what I paid for it. It sounds like a cheap fretless bass guitar. Don't buy it. (Also, the endpin rattles on the inside of the bass while you're playing, and the rattling gets picked up by the pickups).

No, you don't need to remove the battery. As long as the guitar cable is removed when not in use, the circuit will be off. I've never had a battery drained with mine when not in use, provided the guitar cable was removed, I found that the battery life was substantial. An on/off switch would be nice, but not necessary.

compared to NSdesigns upright bass, the Stagg is physically much harder to play. Maybe it is because the NSDesigns bass comes installed with low tension strings. Not sure if the Stagg has high or low tension strings
@garywillacey99792 жыл бұрын
You get use to the neck & strings, they're like most upright strings & they can be changed. The strings feel similar to a normal upright, I tried a few. The NS is lovely but I thought it sounded very much like an electric fretless bass, the stagg sounds closer to an upright, provided the tone is set correctly, also I do like the full length body.

Hi , please help I'm not sure what this knob/strap attachment , thing is for ? Where the back of the neck joins the body there is a silver knob/thing ? On a electric bass guitar it's where you'd attach your strap. Please can anybody inform me it's use... Cheers. Gavin.
@garywillacey99794 жыл бұрын
Hi Gavin The strap knob is of no use, it isn't needed, I removed mine immediately & found I never needed it. It's a stupid feature like the extra triangle bit that screws into the side to replicate the shoulder of a double bass, makes it look ugly, also it's an advantage of these basses to have easy access to the lower fretboard, why would you want to put something unnecessary in the way? The metal frame which is attached to the side of this bass & rests on your side/stomach works well I always use that. Bless
