I am not excane Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) Just wanted to get a poll on which finish of these Modulus basses your prefer. They are identical except for finish. I'm just looking for you initial, gut reaction. I find both basses equally amazing, and I'm deciding if I should trade one for the other. (I'm not saying which one I own yet) Thanks Edited May 12, 2011 by I am not excane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Of those it's Blue/Green for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Is it ok to dislike them both equally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrenochrome Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 The red is more striking, the blue-green is subtle. I voted red cos it'll look ace onstage from a few yards away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubinga5 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) i think there both gorgeous.. could i have both? the Cherry Modulus is a little rarer.... ok its red... Edited May 12, 2011 by bubinga5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckstop Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I reckon the blue/green'll look stunning close up. Really stunning. Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 The red one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Rich Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Voted red, but they both look fantastic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony_m Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Not normally a fan of red, but that red [i]is [/i]stunning, so in this instance red it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimefred Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 red for me, im not really a fan of quilted tops but i do like the red! lot more classier IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisnameistaken Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I don't like quilted maple (or any glossy figured maple) and I think they look worse when stained like that. Sorry but I would pick either and then sand it til the maple went away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I'd go for the blue/green one but they've both lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepbass5 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 all green or all blue, would get my vote but not both so Red on this occasion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SignsOfDelirium_bassist Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 The red one draws the eye more I think, plus it shows off the maple more! Definitely the red! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Red. It reminds me a lot of the £200 Peavey I used to own which was very similar, but purple rather than red. The blue one reminds me of looking into a toilet bowl when one of those blu things is in the cistern. Perhaps EBMM should produce some bongos in that finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZMech Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I'm normally biased towards anyway (both of my basses are red), but that one is particularly badass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe_bass Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I'd normally go with blue over red, but damn that red looks good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleblob Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Well I really like the blue/green, but I have a slightly deeper red 6 string modulus that looks stunning, so it's red for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
