This Carvin AC50f is an original design by this Californian brand and has been in their catalog for years. It comes to fill the gap between the electric and the acoustic bass, offering some interesting features over a traditional acoustic bass such as:
- Slim body (easier to play and carry around)
- Full 2 octave neck with unrestricted access to the highest notes.
- Feedback free operation
- Effective "plugged in" acoustic sound that will fit into a lot of different styles of music.
- Ultra low weight (less than 4 kg)
This is the fretless 5 string model without lines on the fingerboard (side dots are included).The traditional 34" scale is instantly familiar and the low B is strong and well defined.
To sum up: a bass that is incredibly easy to play and sounds just great. The Black nylon tape strings feel smooth and are easy on intonation too.
