*Monster* Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I have owned a carlo giordano bass for about 5 years now, I busk with it and gig it and it has held up well. I couldnt tell you about the thomann ones because I havent tried one. The giordano sounds alright acoustic, nothing special but it does the job (I usually have a pick up so it dosent matter much to me). I have the piano black one with white edges, the paint job is a bit rough and the bass has so much clear coat on it (even on the back of the neck) It would need to be set up and get a decent set of strings - mine was pretty much unplayable when I got it. Thomann do a set up before shipping the basses out (dont know how good of a set up) but for that reason I would look at those basses if you are looking for a cheapish rockabilly bass.
