2wheeler Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Has anyone tried a Levinson Blade Tetra Classic? (That's the one with the passive pickups, despite having a battery for the mid boost circuit, if I understand correctly.) This got a great review in Bass Guitar Magazine and I am very interested. A related questions is, does anyone know where I can try one remotely close to York? Edited May 16, 2008 by 2wheeler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it might still be there .. but not very close to york. I had a quick plunk on it and must admit for the money I did like it as an alternative to a jazz.

2wheeler Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 [quote name='Hit&Run']Which edition of BGM was it reviewed in?[/quote] Issue 32 (you can get this information from their web site, I did ). [url="http://www.bassguitarmagazine.com/issue_32.html"]http://www.bassguitarmagazine.com/issue_32.html[/url] That was a good question to ask because I see that Stuart Clayton did the review. HELLO STUART! Are you reading this? Any comments? [quote name='haruki']if this is the jazz-copy one cost on the £400ish range[/quote] That's the one. [quote name='paul, the']A peculiar thread.[/quote] There are other threads asking if people have tried particular basses. What's peculiar about this thread? [quote name='paul, the']Is it regarding the one on the 'bay?[/quote] No. They're very new and I would be surprise to see one on ebay.
