crplumb Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 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!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crplumb Posted June 3, 2010 Author Share Posted June 3, 2010 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happychappy Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crplumb Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 Well, as they say, looks and first impressions can be deceiving. Thanks for the feedback, I'll be staying clear no worries! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
