Nice one 👍🏼

Marvel?

That's the one (Gear4Music). I believe it comes in grey, blue, green and beige too.

I’m sure I can find some equivalent threads from 2008ish

I didn't know the basses in the test beforehand but I was able to identify the J, P, MM, Spector, Tbird. I mistook the Rick for a Jazz. I really think the differences are clear. It was definitely easier to recognise them with fresh strings.

Does it accept a 3.5mm input? Asking for a friend

It’s got a dedicated input for me in the top corner

How are you pronouncing Fooger 🤣

I don’t care, if it sounds good it’s good. I’ve had good and bad versions of each. I really like mechanical things and for that reason the passive setup appeals to me. What the magnets and wires do feels like magic, instead of powered by electricity. Probably makes little sense but nevertheless…

That’s right, I did suggest that the word flange isn’t pronounced ‘flang’ but he was having none of it.

A mate at work is starting to play the bass so I’m lending him some things to play with, including effects. I mentioned a flanger to him the other day and he laughed at my pronunciation which I have always used. I don’t like flangers so haven’t ever seen videos or talked about them before so I guess I haven’t heard it said properly. I say Flanjer sort of, whereas he says Flanger rhyming with Hanger. Tell me he’s wrong so I can throw it in his face tomorrow

What a cool selection of basses, really enjoyed looking through those!

If it’s not a Vigier Passion II then it ought to be!

Mine used to be modern sounding, two pickups, super low action, probably carbon. Then I bought an ancient Mustang and it changed everything.

I’m the best expert

Thanks, very tempting. Artiphon have just released the Orba 3, which has built in sample recording too. I'm more likely to go for one of those, I think.

I’m glad someone noticed my haircut!

Here’s the manual 👍🏼 I think mine sounded best with higher voltage power. For convenience I used a 24v output from my Cioks but I also use it with batteries a lot. Particularly convenient because it has an off switch so you can leave it plugged in. More voltage means you get a bit more range out of it and it’s a bit quieter in terms of background noise.

I should think it's fine for the neck, but I'd be worried about the tuners - IMO they need a bit of space, and with the G string tuner being right at the end of the headstock I'd be worried about it getting bashed

Hm, weird. I have packed it up to send back but maybe I'll crack it open and record it to show you if I have time before the return window.
