wright/watt Posted January 31 Posted January 31 Just recently managed after many, many years, of which trying to find, let alone own an Arpege series 11 fretless with a Delta metal fingerboard..Obtained one!! Truly Phenomenal bass. The import duties alas, which came attached, meant that I had to part with my series 1 Arpege..Not moaning, very very lucky regardless!!😊😊👍 5 Quote

ped Posted February 1 Posted February 1 Lovely - what's the little extra bit on the cavity cover? And the extra strap pin - did someone play it upside down? Or maybe with one of those waist straps? Quote

Bridge PU, push (OK, turn) bass to the max, cut treble a lot. Middle according to your personal taste. How does that sound? Quote
