It's supposed to arrive on Wednesday coming from Pau, France. Drop dead gorgeous figuring! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I like that rear cavity cover. Well, I like it all, but that rear cavity cover is a step up from the black plastic ones on my Thumbs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so you're in for a treat, they're phenomenal instruments and, in my most humble opinion, completely put to bed the idea that the old ones are the best! Only thing I don't like is the rechargeable preamp, but thankfully there should be a regular 9v adapter in the kit pack so you can change it if you want. Beautiful bass, congrats!

I still have the NT4 that I got from you. I posted a photo on this thread some months back... it's a studio queen now, and I changed it from BEAD to EADG. So, this NT5 will give me a low-B on a Thumb once again... and I probably won't gig it either due to the weight but let's see. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha sorry I didn't recognise the username bud, glad that bass is still with you! Still can't get over the grain on it 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
