I STARTED PLAYING BASS IN 1963. I HAVE HAD MANY TOP END BASSES. I LEARNED TO WORK ON MY OWN GUITARS THROUGH THE YEARS. I ORDERED THE SUNBURST DONNER P BASS. I WAS QUITE PLAYABLE RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX, I WAS IMPRESSED RIGHT AWAY! INTONATION WAS PERFECT, THE FRET ENDS WERE A BIT SHARP, AND NEEDED A LITTLE FILING. EASY FIX (FOR ME). I ALWAYS PLAY FLAT WOUND STRINGS, SO I PUT ON SOME LABELLA FLATS..... THE DONNER BASS NEAR COMPARES TO ANY AMERICAN FENDER P BASS THAT I HAVE OWNED. (AT LEAST THE ONE THAT I GOT)> GREAT WORKMANSHIP TOO! I THINK THAT DONNER HAS 'UPPED' THEIR GAME, AND IS PUTTING OUT SOME PRETTY DARN GOOD PRODUCTS THESE DAYS ,AND HAS EARNED MORE RESPECT FROM ME FOR SURE..

This is my first Bass, I bought it some months ago and completely love it.

La qualité de la basse Donner est incroyable j'ai juste resserré un le bouton Tone, c'est tout. Elle prête à jouer. Le son est plus que correcte. Basse qui d'autres marques plus chères. Vous pouvez l'acheter pour en faire une "Custom Bass". Le manche, la peinture tout est bien fait.

Of course, the guitar isn't set up so you will need to go to your local professional and spend some money to get things right. Our guy felt it was decent for a beginner and did his best to get it set up nicely, but he did have to do a lot of fret work before he was happy with the sound. Of course, he also completely restrung the instrument also. Anyhow, he was happy with the bass after he worked on it, my son was happy with the bass as he began to play it, and life was good in musician land.For the price of the bass, the sound is really nicely rounded and sounds like a much more expensive instrument. The strap is crap and you will likely want to replace that asap. That being said, my son is a large man with a barrel chest and things like a good strap are very important to him.Anyhow, so far, so good. More money has gone into it than anticipated, but I rather expect that from anything in musician land. It's always a journey.

The bass sounds really nice considering it's price

This Bass looks beautiful in finish. All frets are smooth, no work needed. Set up was spot on right out of the box. Good response from the pickups fothus price guitar. Nice thin, quality neck with action easy to play. No buzz or issues. Looking forward to some recording sessions with this ... would recommend for beginners or experienced players that want quality without the usual $$ hit. Enjoy

Ein echt tolller Bass,es gibt sogar eine APP von der Firma wo man kostenfrei Onlinekurse anschauen kann.Der Klang ist gut und das anfängliche "scheppern" der Saiten hat jeder Bassanfänger, das man aber durch dämpfen der Saiten vermeiden kann. Da ich Totaler Bassanfänger bin hat es mich erst geärgert aber es gibt online so viele Videos wo schon einige Fragen und Probleme beseitigt werden wenn man sich diese mal ansieht. Ist allerdings ein ausgewachsener Bass und kein Midi der so groß wie eine E-Gitarre ist. Den Vorteil den ein Midi bass hat ist das man es als Gitarrist auf dem Griffbrett einfacher hat da es der E-Gitarre entspricht. Ich bin jedenfalls 100% zufrieden.

I prodotti Donner hanno un ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, il basso ha una finitura ottima, in particolare il manico ed i tasti. Tiene bene l'accordatura ed ha un suono è più che accettabile per un utilizzo non professionale. Consigliato

E tenido problemas de vistaPeroeso no importaEl caso es queno llegaron

Let me begin by saying I'm not a bassist; in fact, I'm not even a great guitarist, but rather an enthusiast who likes to experiment in his home studio. That being said, I purchased this for myself so I could lay down some rudimentary bass lines to glue together some song ideas ahead of someone else doing the real work, so take my comments in that context.I have to say, I LOVE this bass! As an owner of 3 other guitars, I CAN recognize good build quality and this certainly exemplifies that. There isn't a single blemish on this thing--it's shiny, slick and pretty. It's also SOLID, but not overly heavy. I'd guess it weighs about 7 or 8 freedom units (pounds) and its center of gravity is probably about the fourth fret from the end of the neck, so there's an ever so slight tendency for neck dive, but that's without the friction of a strap, just me holding it against my stomach and playing (yes, there is a carved comfort scoop).As it arrived, it was ALMOST in tune; the strings feel nice, well-coated so they're smooth with no biting. The tuners seem to work and one thing that actually surprised me is that it appears to have a bone nut--it's gritty, off-white and carved perfectly for each different string girth. The tuners are simple, but effective. At the other end, the bridge and saddles seem solid enough, though I'm not an expert, so I included a close-up picture for you to decide. The action is ever so slightly high due to my fingers being a just a bit shorter than average, but that's easily remedied. I included a pic of that, too, for your own reference.The knobs for the pots offer a pleasant resistance--just enough to feel substantial. The knobs themselves are straight and are installed securely. The pickups seem to be seated adequately and overall; this thing feels solid and pleasant to hold, which is important--especially if you're going to be using this for more than a couple of minutes.As for the playing, I like the classic P-Bass tone that this Donner provides; I ran this through my DAW and everything sounds good. Like I said, I'm not a professional bassist, but I was more than pleased with the sound I got. The strings stayed in tune and I had a great time. I'm not the next Michael Anthony or anything, but based on my experience as an incredibly mediocre guitarist, I'd say anyone else could probably get even more out of it.I will admit to one thing being a slight demerit in the evaluation of this bass: there is a tiny (I mean almost imperceptible, but not quite) bit of fret sprout on about three of the frets, something that is easily addressed by anyone with a luthier's kit--which, as the owner of 4 guitars now, I happen to possess. Fixing those frets will require about 5 minutes of work.The bundle includes a NICE, padded gig bag, a strap, a cable (which is surprisingly thick and deluxe-feeling) and an Allen wrench. The bass alone would have been a solid value, but with the added bundle, this is a home run for anyone who's a beginning/sometime/pro bassist (in need of an inexpensive backup). There are virtually no flaws and for the price, the potential downside is almost non-existent.

Some reviewer claimed it was neck heavy. I found, it is NOT neck heavy, rather perfectly balanced whether on a strap, or on my knee. (My strap is leather though, and the body side is rather rough and grippy. So there is that factor)I was reluctant when I read that "neck heavy" stuff, but glad I did not heed those words.The Guitar IS on the heavy side, for sure though, (about 10 pounds.) So yes, compaired to a six string electric guitar it is heavier, and it's longer too. But it IS a standard full size electric BASS guitar, so, it is, what it is. Basses are bigger, heavier, and longer than six strings guitars, for sure. I am 6' and 190 lbs and no problem for me.It's a fine instrument IMO. Well balanced. Just what I hoped it would be. I am having a lot of fun with it.I have a little Fender, Frontman, 10G practice AMP ($80) and this bass just does not play so well on that, for me. I don't dare turn it up full blast on that little amp, for fear this bass might blow the speakers. This 10G works very well for my six string though. Nice and small. Sweet for 6 string guitarsA new FENDER BASS 40 AMP, that I ordered, arrived today though. ($200.). I DO like that 40 amp, for this bass.Some reviews say that the Fender bass amp plays on six string guitars OK too. I have not found very true for me. It sounds too deep, but truthfully, I have not fooled around with it much with my 6 string, and the bass amp does have a lot of settings. So maybe, (??) but I am sure my Fender, 10G is great for my 6 string, so I doubt I'll mess around using that with my bass anymoreSo anyway, I am in love with this Donner bass, so far. Everything works good, so far, for me. If I find anything negative about it later, I will come back and edit this review. 10/08/2022.
