wombatboter Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 I own two Pedulla MVP's for the moment (a tiger maple one and this black one) but after trying out both basses I decided to let this one go. It's a 2006 model, PJ configuration, serialnumber 2455, neck through with an ebony fingerboard and 24 frets. 34"Scale. Schaller gold hardware, Bartolini pick-ups, controls : mastervolume, balance and tone. There is a Pedulla case included and the bass is as good as new. I prefer to sell this one since it sounds more hi-fi than my other one..(the tiger maple one sounds a bit more "woody" which suits me better) I have the action really low (to get that Stanley Clarke twang) and it delivers a great punch and offers easy playability for most modern sounds. Raising the action should give more lows but that's all a personal choice This bass can be picked up (Brussels-Belgium) or can be shipped. No trades please. I'm asking 1350 euros.. Some pictures and a quick youtube vid for some sounds which are possible (bit hasty in the playing but it's good enough for the purpose, too much adrenaline due to a stressful week) For more information feel free to contact me..

jogi Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hi Geert, just curious as a fellow Pedulla-owner: Isn´t serial number 2455 a 1989 bass? Great bass at a very fair price in any case! Cheers, Jogi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatboter Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 According to the list you're right.. it should be an '89. The former owner however claims it was bought new at Pedulla around 2006 and when I look at the bass it looks as good as new, there is not a mark or a scratch on it. So not really sure actually about the year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jogi Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Nevermind, these are great basses regardless of the year they were built in. Even more stunning if this actually [i]is[/i] 22 years old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombatboter Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 Thanks... It's back for sale (the buyer didn't go through with the deal since he thought I had been "tricked") I don't feel that way since it's a great instrument whether it's from 1989 or 2006.. It's in great condition. I can offer free shipping to the UK and the surrounding countries for those who are interested in this instrument (Japan etc.. is a bit difficult :-)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need another 4 string but was half tempted after listening to your playing. Unfortunately I doubt in reality I would sound as good as you had I bought it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking I'm buying a 2006 and would get an -89... These are great instruments but frets etc. doesn't get better with the years and there's a quite big differens there. If you're looking for a Pedulla and could settle with an old one this is the one. Unbelievable good cond. for one made -89. These thin finishes use to get very worn by the years, so... And they sound great. One of the most beautiful looking basses that's out there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
