Hello everyone. Kinda new here. I just wanna ask something.
I am about to buy a Chaos 5 Traben bass a week from now since a shop here in the Philippines will have a sale. Will buy it for 12,000.00 PHP(281.163 USD when converted) What are your takes on this bass? Do you recommend a better whatever-something within the price range (250 to 300$)? I would like to buy a Warwick but I don't have the cash for it so... I would like to have some feedbacks regarding the Traben Chaos 5.
Some are saying that pick-ups are bad so if ever that is the case, what pick-ups can you recommend for me?
...and also, another question... I just need feedbacks regarding the Seymour Duncan SMB-5A pick-ups. If I'll be installing them on the Chaos 5 Traben...any 'yays-and-nays' would be appreciated...and that is if they will fit(I'm not that knowledgeable in basses)
Edit: And also good/affordable amplifiers...
Thank you!
