About 3 years ago, I bought a Juzek 401 made in China, too. I really like the Bass very much. My luthier installed new Rubner Tuning Machines and a wooden end pin. I have been recording with a Condenser mic (Zoom H6) about 16" from the Belly and it really sounds great. I use Pirastro Evah Prazzi strings which are really nice for both arco and pizz. I have used Obligato strings, but the E string went pretty flabby after about 4 months.
`I’ve this bass for two years. After I bought it I sat down with my luthier and we did an ebony tail piece, a carbon fiber end pin a realist pick up, reshape the finger board, and reset the sound post and sounded 10 times better than it did in the store, really my favorite DB, I still have my Loyal Shen SB 88 and just recently bought an NS EUB
