Double Bass Thomann Rockabilly Double Bass

[El Loco]

Thomann Rockabilly double basses looks nice,and are in general reasonably cheap,at least here in Europe.
But i don't know nobody that give them a try,maybe someone here?
Shared impressions and suggestions welcome!

You get what you pay for. I bought one, knowing full well that I will have to upgrade if I keep playing.

It's cheaply made, it rattles, finish is lacking. After a year of playing, the steel strings are starting to eat into the fingerboard.

I don't say you shouldn't buy one, but you should know what you're getting yourself into.

I think it depends on the luck.... I bought a thomann black bass about 3 years ago and is one of the best buyings in my life!!! 400EUR and didn't need upgrades... But i have some friends that don't think like me... They had problems... I'm very happy with my thomann bass, and i think i'll buy another one when my black bass dies....
