Ortega D7CE-5 Deep

This is one of those instruments you buy for the price, but when you open the box, you really wonder if there could be some mistake in the listing.
The instrument looks great, well built and solid. The body is really massive, you don't expect that when you see the pictures. But when you put the bass on your lap or hung it with the strap, if feels very comfortable. And then there is the sound: you don't expect that an acoustic bass in this price range could do so well sounding unplugged (the huge body may help). Incredible. And it do well also plugged. The fretboard is very friendly and easy to play and well tuned. You can't ask for more.
I also bought the Ortega hard case to protect it adequately.
Maybe, you weren't expecting for this bass but if you are searching a five string acoustic this is really an option to consider buying.
