A couple of months ago I bought an Adamovic Jupiter bass and I was really pleased with it.. great sound and really lightweight.
I got the opportunity however to trade it with another Adamovic which is even better..
I wasn't too keen on playing five string again but this one convinced me : again very lightweight and a joy to play.
It is designed to make use of a smaller 33" scale and 26 frets. Pickup placement is slightly off centre towards the bridge providing me with lots of tonal possibilities.
The electronics are designed by German company Glockenklang and have the same output in active or passive mode. The pickups are Adamovic/Hauessel design.
Controls are 3 way switch per pickup, active/passive push/pull, volume - blend - treble - midrange - bass.
The 2 dual coils sit within a custom adjustable wooden playing ramp.
Loads of punch and fast articulation which is suited for solo style playing.
When I bought it it came with a high C but I changed it to a normal BEADG tuning...
Only turn-off which I can find is that the tuning pegs are a bit too close to each other and should have been placed in a different way on the headstock..
