Steinberger Review: XZ2-DB 4 String Bass with db tuner

History:

Purchase: i paid 359 us dollars for it, i bought it at musicyo.com and i purchased it to have an almost professional bass, with steinberger features and db tuner(to drop the e string to d or b)

What I Like About This Steinberger XZ2-DB 4 String Bass with db tuner: everything is cool. i already made my first very first record with my band and i recorded all the tracks with this bass(i put aside a yamaha, a fender and a epiphone bass)it has a great variety of tones. i canīt believe the great tone and stability of this bass, and the db tuner is very useful....and looks really great. i always loved headless but i didnt like the bodies of steinberger, but this one is very beautiful. the price is also very temptative.

What I Do NOT Like About The Steinberger XZ2-DB 4 String Bass with db tuner: even when the emg select pick ups have a great response and tone, an upgrade of emg may be great. by this time, i donīt think i need that, but some may find that interesting. i dont have anything more in this place

Steinberger XZ2-DB 4 String Bass with db tuner Quality Rating: great!! even when you always read aroud about the graphite necks, i found this maple, rosewood very stable and gives a great tone. the electronics are cool. and not to mention all the steinberger high line stuff(bridge, db tuner, headless, etc) great look and very fine manufacturer

Review Summary: the best bass i havd played. above yamaha, fender, and others. obviously it is a bass from the middle range price, but it can beat some of the hard to pay basses around. i keep this one as my primary bass.

Rating of this Steinberger product: 5
