Well, when it had Orchestra Strings on it it was just fine. I used it for a few orchestra rehearsals but nothing more. Just took it out for a test spin. It worked like a regular Bass in the section. Usually I overpower most of the other Basses there but this one being slightly smaller just blended in. I heard myself playing as well. With the current strings on the Bass it Bows a bit brighter. Not what I look for orchestrally.
