Stagg Bass - BA704A and BA606A

[crplumb]

Just interested to see if anyone has had the opportunity to play one of these basses. Stumbled upon them while looking at the EDB Upright Basses on the Stagg website.

The basses look good but looks can be deceiving!!

Managed to try out the BA606A the other day - seems to be fairly well built and plays decently. Full on sound from the humbuckers.

Anyone played the BA704A at all?

Sadly yes,the finish is peeling off and it buzzes even with high action no matter what i do with the truss rod.your money would be better spent on a used bass like a squier VM

I've done setups on a couple of STAGG basses for pupils. They're simple and functional but the quality of materials isn't up to much. As happychappy said, your money is better spent elsewhere, to be honest.

Well, as they say, looks and first impressions can be deceiving. Thanks for the feedback, I'll be staying clear no worries!
