Let me first say that the Stagg EDB 3/4 electric Double Bass, should perhaps be renamed the EDB ‘Stick’ Bass. Like the electric bass guitar, it is essentially a completely different instrument, with sonic qualities in the bass register that are very different from the upright Acoustic Bass. The EDB provides a whole new dimension to the colour and timbre of sound, and like most ‘Stick’ basses has incredible sustain.
