Sound is great. Bigger volume unplugged than you'd think with that small body, it could be that I'll get around to miking it and mixing that sound with the piezo. Pickup sound is also good, very db-like to my ears, to a much greater degree than any other EUB I could get my hands on (includes various NSs, Triumph, Eminence and others). Has a tendency to a piezo 'quack' when practising using headphones, so it's possible it may not record well, but that sound has never been evident when playing through a PA or my markbass combo.

Here's Brian Bromberg playing his -- [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmlF1FAvoDY"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmlF1FAvoDY[/url]

I suspect that if I could afford an Azola, (and the shipping charges, since they never seem to go on sale in the UK) that I might find a better bass ... but for now, and for the limited use it gets (it rarely goes out) I'm very happy with it.

I wonder what are the chances of an Azola in the UK now and what the price is likely to be ? [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showpost.php?p=9204627&postcount=244"]Azola Announcement[/url]
