[quote name='claf' post='789209' date='Mar 29 2010, 10:20 AM']Hello ! I'm selling (or trading) my Pedulla-Orsini bass. [b]The sound is very particular, it's really like Jerry Preston's BC Rich [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABLwmYI09Lw"]here[/url].[/b][/quote] That's a fantastic YouTube clip! What a bass player and a great sound..It's a BC Rich Wave Bass if I recall correctly.. If your bass sounds like that, then it's pretty cool! Good luck with the sale...

[quote name='uzzell' post='788835' date='Mar 28 2010, 08:28 PM']I'm not quite sure how to answe rthat really but I will try my best. Compared to my old PM4 that was loaded with the Delano's this bass is not as 'hi-fi' as that. I know that the pickup config's are different but this JJ5 certainly has a slightly more vintage sound to it, particularly when in passive mode. I am pretty sure that this bass has alnico pickups. Hopefully that can help.[/quote] Just to clarify, the Haussel pickups are alnico ... here's what they said at Sandberg when I emailed them in December: [i]"hi nik, the pickup is from a small workshop here in germany called „häussel pickups. it’s a real single coil with alnico5 magnetics. Best regards – holger stonjek"[/i] I tend to prefer a more 'vintage' tone and IMO, these pick ups are definitely biased more that way, though the pre-amp may also have a bearing on that too.. Hope that helps.

Just to confirm what a fabulous bass this is and it really does deliver sonically! The passive tone itself is superb and the sound from the bridge pick up is so funky it's untrue.. Kick in the active circuit and it gets even better! Alan who owned it before me (and who was the original owner) always described it as 'the tone monster' which sums it up perfectly.. I would have kept this bass if it was 34" scale but being a person who is 'vertically challenged', I struggled a bit with the 35" scale.. If only.. Anyway, I must stop GAS-ing after this again and be sensible.. Good luck with the sale Chris!

I have no idea how heavy it is though, anyone? It is the Diesel model by the way in Black Tolex although it has lots of nicks and scuffs. Mine unfortunately (like my Roland combo) doesn't have the casters but I have a specially made board with large casters on that it can be pushed around on [url="http://www.me.com/gallery/#100011/Mesa7"]Here is a crappy photo of the cab.[/url][/quote] The cab is about 150 lbs as I understand it..

[quote name='alansanderson' post='777908' date='Mar 17 2010, 07:57 PM']Hey Nik, thanks mate!! How's everything with you? tour was great thanks, had an amazing time in The Netherlands and can't wait to go back this summer! Gotta have a bit of a clear out before my tenancy here ends though... so... you know... Also, I'm open to offers guys, this has to go and I know that eBay is one hell of a lot crueller than selling stuff here, so feel free to make an offer... I won't get offended =)[/quote] Hi Al, Good thanks.. Sounds like you had a blast!! Looks like you've got a sale already.. Nik

Hi Al, Great looking bass at a good price - hopefully shouldn't be here too long; good luck with the sale.. BTW, Al's a great person to deal with folks, so you can deal with him with absolute confidence! So, how did the tour go and is the Fender Jazz 5 still treating you well (or should that be the other way round?). Nik

Wow - I can't believe this bass is still here??

[quote name='baloubass45' post='774241' date='Mar 14 2010, 12:36 PM']if anyone are listen the sound clip just for i'm sure the link work good.[/quote] They do work and they sound very good, as does the bass! Great range of tones as you'd expect with one of these which is why they are so good.. Took a while to download for some reason though.

If you are so stressed about the price and putting it on offer or even selling it, do some research, get your prices right and come back to us.... its not like we are all going to hold you to a price on your bass and seek you out if you pull out of the sale..... You will also find that people on this forum will soon tell you if you are underselling, and that should reassure you that fair is fair.... Go for it, you have nothing to loose Steve[/quote] +1
