Douglas 6 string bass... Any opinions?

[jcon]

Rondo Music is selling them for $169.95. My brother's considering picking one up just to see what they're all about. I'm thinking they're made by Shine http://www.saein.co.kr
The Warrior series looks pretty much the same as the Douglas.

Cheers,
Joe

well, no... you get what you pay for. By all means pick one up, it's not alot of money if it is a dud, just don't be expecting much.:frown:

Rondo sells great instruments for great prices. I recently picked up a five string Music Man copy by SX, and it kicks ass. I don't have firsthand experience with Douglas, but I'd expect them to be the same. You really can't go wrong with Rondo.

Well yeah. But I heard that the Brice was the equivalent of the Ibanez 6-stringers. And they cost $450 from Rondo.

I beleive there are 1 or 2 guys over at HCBF looking at those as well.

I don't know anything about the Douglas stuff, but for that kind of money I'd try it out. I'm more than happy with my cheapo SX's.
