    ...and the opposite of what I thought!!

    Same process really, it’s the fingerboard material that matters. Normally this will be some sort of plastic resin which may allow the frets to be removed without the splintering you get with wood. However often the neck and fretboard will be coated together as one piece so it might crack the varnish/finish but I guess you get wooden necks like that too. Edit: may well be incorrect, stand to be corrected by our resident experts. I just recall talking to someone who had a carbon necked Vigier converted

    Ramp??

    Doesn't mean people shouldn't use them - some brilliant players even manage to get by with P basses!

    Just search for the username in that forum, and it'll find the thread. Some people have a link to their thread in their profile. I don't think it's possible for us to embed it into their profile page but it might be at some point if the software allows.

    Doesn’t function like a ramp though, the whole thing with a ramp is the feel under the plucking fingers. It’s use as a thumbrest is secondary.

    I met Mr. Hellborg and all we talked about was paintball

    Yeah get the Tecamp Also worth mentioning having toneprint is great because if you load in the Spectracomp you’ll have a better compressor than most heads with it ‘built in’

    You realise when you post one of these threads that’s me gone for the evening listening to music for hours!!

    Go to a bicycle shop and get a couple. If you have one nearby.

    I’m the opposite - amazing bass and Harley Benton talent

    It’s evolved along the way. The FC archives the original aim and the other is just another option for fun

    Ramp??

    That’s a hum cancelling coil and normally it sits flush with the surface

    They only mute open strings, so people tend to use them for tapping. Foam at the other end is cool though and gives a nice muted sound that you may find useful.

    Not at all - it's just that we had one persistent spammer who registered an account and PMd everyone with a wanted ad offering the item they were after. After we closed about 10 of his accounts we decided to make it invisible to stop him. It worked!! Cheers

    Sorry yes you're right, the extra knob controls the level of boost/cut, whereas the Passion has a switch for cut or boost and the level is pre-set. Also the Arpege has a series/parallel switch

    Lovely - a nice matching pair! Ever been tempted to convert one to fretless?
  25. ped
    Indeed - however the Arpege semi-parametric extra control knob alters the frequency of the boost/cut knob. It was also available with a ROM preamp without the removable pre-amp cartridges you mention for the Passion bass. Instead it had a 12 position switch http://www.vigierguitars.net/bcatalog/bfcv4.htm I've never tried the ROM preamp
