what do you think of this as a first eub?

I currently play electric bass guitar and want to buy an eub just to see how things go on them, what would you say to the one in the link? Or any other recommendations for a beginner eub?

it's not an eub...

put your fender fretless on a stand and turn it vertically and you get the dean pace. There's not curvature of the fingerboard so it doesn't really simulate much.

for your money, i'd check out the wav4

My 2 Cents

Kevin's right. it's just a bass guitar. There's lots of options. Two weeks ago I bought a new Palatino blem on ebay for $370. For the price, I can't complain, and the band and I love the tone and presence it brings. Looks a lot cooler than the Dean, too.
