TestaDiBasso Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Brand: Pasini - (Wood&Tronics) Nickname: The Rocket Body: Ash 2 pcs Top: Tiger Maple Neck: scale 35" - maple 3pcs BO (central quarter sawn) Fingerboard: 24 frets Bird's eye maple Cover Pu: Bird's eye maple Dots: Blue/gold glitter inlays PU: Pasini single coil neck, single/dual coil/single bridge Preamp: Pasini 3 way – stacked volume, Hi/Mid/Bass; Active/Passive switch, Mid switch freq, single/dual/single switch Color: blue Triumph Rocket 3, gold hand painted binding Conditions: almost like new, just a few slap marks on the pickguard. Pasini basses is directly connected to Wood&Tronics, it is always Enrico Pasini; it is a line that maintains the construction quality and sound characteristics but aimed at being more direct and immediate for the customer, with more "standardized" customizations and a more modern impact in the aesthetics. The Rocket has some more customizations, made on my request, having been among the first to have commissioned it. It was designed in pandance with my bike: a Triump Rocket 3 classic blue/cream/chrome/gold. Despite the modern line it maintains a traditional stamp, very JB; however, by activating the dual coil, it becomes a sort of telluric cannon! The playability is excellent, like all Wood&Tronics, and the weight is perfectly balanced: it doesn't seem to have a bass with an increased scale on it, but it maintains the focus and grit! Preamp is natural, and neutral, so It's not really a "Jazz on steroids", but more of an "adult Jazz" with a lot of experience behind it! Fun fact: the shape of the body allows it to be played while sitting at a 45% angle, like a sitar, maintaining a more comfortable posture, and allows you to comfortably reach the entire fingerboard. Unfortunately, due to my work and some microfractures in my wrists (due to an old car accident) that are not naturally curable, my playing autonomy is still 10 15 minutes, then my hands start to slow down (as if they had low batteries); I therefore decided to keep only one instrument, for fun from time to time. For more photos I am available, eventually I can record some short clips Semi-rigid gigbag, GruvGear leather strap + locks - included 3 Quote
