 Re: (Chinese) Bass - How Low (Price) Can You Go?

HI Chris,

Interesting to hear you're account of getting the Rosendale bass into proper playing condition, as this model suggests itself as likely offering the best value for money among the budget Chinese options here in Europe ( at its standard retail price that is). I doubt that paying for a more expensive one is any guarantee of unboxing an instrument with fewer issues to be sorting out. It seems that they all leave the China factory in a similar state. That said they can be expected to play quite well after they have received the necessary attention.

As JD wisely pointed out at the end of his little video on setting up his 500$ Accent.

" This is a cautionary tale."

Ps. My Selmer style keywork bass has solid hinge-pin hung rods, although a few of the pins tended to back out quickly due to slightly angled presentation within the rod hole. ( And a host of other issues to sort out initially needles to say). These instruments come like Kit cars. Ha-ha!
