Fleaman08 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) So this beauty came up on my Facebook feed the other day and really caught my eye!! [url="http://mayones.com/page/jabba-hadrien-feraud-5/"]http://mayones.com/page/jabba-hadrien-feraud-5/ [/url] I'm saving at the moment for a good 5 string and have been interested in Mayones for a while. I'm also a fan of Hadrien. so this is kind of perfect. I'm wondering does anyone happen to have any more info on these like release dates or prices?? Any info would be great. Plus here's the vid promo for the bass.

bubinga5 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 No idea but that is very nice. Jabba,s are pretty amazing sounding. YouTube Marcus Miller playing one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I used to have a Be4, couldn't fault it, very well made instrument, it's just the sound wasn't right for me when I changed bands so I sold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visog Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 So what's happened with his Ken Smith Burner signature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visog Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Agreed - he's a total monster.... but I do wonder about the endorsements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fretmeister Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Lovely! Apparently really light weight too according to HF's own vid. I haven't got £2750 lying about though alas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Very odd spacing on the control knobs! For some reason that would really irritate me... not that I could afford one anyway. I owned a four string Jabba for a while, and while it was beautifully put together it just left me slightly cold for some reason. Nothing I could put my finger on, just "not right" for me no matter how much I tried to love it My loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhammers Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 One thing I noticed: Chicago Music Exchange apparently just received their Feraud and Malaman Signatures. The weight isn't listed at the moment for the Malaman, but the Feraud apparently weighs 9.7 lb. Which, sure, seems to be lighter than the average Jabba, but is still heavier than I want mine to be BassDirect told me they expected them to weigh around 9 lb, but emphasized that there would of course be variation in the weight (meaning they couldn't promise anything). But what's interesting is that when I got in touch with Mayones (I was trying to do my due diligence), they estimated they would be around 3.5 kg (approximately 7.7 lb). That would be insanely light, and I wonder where they got the number from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Was just looking at these. If they end up weighing under 8lb as the post above then I'm having one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
