eekturk's Amp Rig

It's pretty much everything you'd want from a 200 euro Höfner clone, the fretwork (at least on mine) is perfect, I had to set mine up a little but it feels very good, sounds really good too, and in the online photos the finish looks a little ugly but in person it's beautiful, athough one thing that looks better on the Thomann photos is the flame and it's not as visible in person but it still looks great. It sounds pretty much like a Höfner bass, I've tried a Höfner bass and it feels almost exactly the same, the quality is pretty much on par, I have no plans to replace this with a Höfner.

It's nice overall and feels solid and never goes out of tune even with the tremolo but the fret ends are pretty sharp, if you get that fixed and get it set up it would feel pretty close to at least a Squier Affinity Stratocaster, the stock ceramic pickups are good enough but I swapped them out for generic Alnico V ones and it's even better now.

This was my first ever amplifier, it's not good, the distortion sounds muddy and very noisy, the clean is okay, you could probably make it enough for a beginner by only using a pedal for distortion and keeping the amp clean
