Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Hagstrom HB-8 8 string bass guitaris great sounding instrument and is fun to play.The craftmanship is excellent.I like the unique look of the tuning keys.The bass has a six way selector rotary pot that gives you a variety of sounds.The scale length is 30.75".I had a little trouble finding a little D string that was long enough.I would suggest a .022 Bajo Sexto string.The bridge is heavy duty .I bought the Wild Cherry transparent finish that looks great.I am vey pleased with this bass and I would recommend this bass to someone looking a different sound.
