First time seeing a bass like that but I like the minimalistic style of it. I found this bass on the Ibanez website and wanted to see how it looks and how it's being played. I didn't know that it's a contrabass/double-bass. I thought it was a "normal" bassguitar.

It's definitely a hybrid because the bridge to nut is a full scale electric bass. The pickup system however is geared to wood bass sound.

Not that weird for me. The stand let's you put where you want but the bigger issue is no neck break. Acoustic (wood) basses usually have D neck break same with ampeg baby. Sendel baby has Eb but at least a neck break. That IMO is the biggest problem with "stick basses" like NS and Ibanez.

Very different sound, for 2 main reasons reasons: - A piezo/transducer system in the upright will deliver a more acoustic-focussed and woody tone. These are available in some bass guitar models, but in limited options only. - The way you play is very different - on an upright, you use a lot more meat on the finger to pluck, and your finger rests back on the string below, parallel and with a clear percussive thump - even a one finger technique on the bass guitar won't get this. This bass is a clear option for an upright player wanting a portable alternative, or a bass guitarist wanting an upright sound without a huge jump and at a pretty decent price.
