Dean Pace 5 5 String Electric Upright Bass (Black) Review

1st. YOU NEED a bass pre amp. The saddles have pizzo pickups and work very well if you use a bass pre amp. This is what will make it open up and sound great: [...]
2. No battery on these current models. One vol knob.
3. My side dots ever off. I fixed it using my dremel, but I really dont care what it looks like (with in reason) as long as it works for me. And works well.
4. The B string is too big to fit correctly in the saddle pickup. Again, I used my dremel to shave a U so it would slightly widen up and accept the larger B string. Otherwise it would never get picked up. Now it works fine.
After having it a month or so... there are a few wishes I have for it.. but, for the price I am ok not having them I guess.
1. I would rather have a much more curves radius per string and expesically at the bridge.
2. Much higher string action. Weird huh? I need to DIG IN on the strings and I can not do it as I would like to. It is much more of a fence play now.
3. Much thicker strings.
Its really like a regular 5 string fret-less bass being held up to look like a electric string bass. I have played it sitting down and it really works well like a electric bass. Makes me think of throwing a strap on it and using it both ways.

CECILIO CEDB-1DW 3/4 Size ELECTRIC SILENT MAHOGANY METALIC UPRIGHT DOUBLE BASS Review

This bass arrived dinged up with flaking paint exposing the wood. The end pin wobbles and feels like it will snap if weight is applied. Two strings broke when tightening for first tuning. The pickup sounds terrible and the line out jack is a 1/8" headphone size only and it doesn't even fit adapters or the stock cable correctly. The 1/8" to 1/4" cable arrived with no 1/4" end, it was just sheared off like someone took clippers to it. The extendable body rest doesn't lock in place and is shoddy at best. Over all this bass was a complete piece of junk. Buy something else
