acoustic basses sound so nice

yep. and it sounds much better now with good strings than what it sounded with those factory strings.

I bet. Is it acoustic electric or do acoustic basses usually not have pickups?

its electric acoustic, so it does have some sort of pickup, im not really sure how they work in acoustic guitars/basses.

Electric acoustic? in that order?

in finnish we say it in that order for acoustic with mics(or actually we call them elecro-acoustic), also english wiki site calls it in that order. now that you mentioned the order, i noticed that most google results show sites that call it acoustic electric, but some still come with electric acoustic, so i dont think the order of those words makes any difference. or is there some slight difference?

Nii siis se mikki on joko tallassa kiinni, tai sitte erillään. Eli joko piezo tai magneettimikki.
Hieno verme, abertone. =)

It just threw me off, The acoustic-electric lingo means it's an acoustic, with electronics. I thought maybe electric-acoustic may have been an electric with slight acoustic characteristics.

kiitoks

joo en tiedä onks noi pari nappulaa tos tallassa jotai tollasia piezo mikkejä(aikasemmin oon kelannu et ne on jotai tappeja mitkä pitää tallan paremmin kii) vai onks tuol sisällä joku mikki.

Ei nuo ainakaan yleensä (tietääkseni) oo tolleen tallan läpi laitettu. Ainakin ne kitarat mitä mulla on ollu piezolla, on ollu sellasia että se mikki on siellä rungon sisällä ikään ku sen tallan alapuolella. (ilmeisesti jotenki sitte kuitenki kiinni siinä tallassa alapuolelta emt)
Mutta en mee sanomaan, voihan ne varmaan olla tuolleenki, en oo soitinrakentaja Muutenkin nuo sähköset vehkeet ollu enemmän mun soittimia.. ^^
