GCYPbass Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) SOLD Edited March 9, 2009 by guven_caglar
Tech Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 aha! i had the 5 string version of this bass, with EMG PJs... really miss it in fairness, she was stunning - olympic white, gold hardware, black scratchplate, white pickups, and the sound... tremendous. i only sold because I'm playing 6 strings these days... really regret it now, because the sound and feel were so perfect. very very tight bass - you can dig in till the cows come home, and it's all solid tone. damn! whoever gets this will be a very, very happy person. the chap who I bought it from had it in a herd of nothing less than £1000 - mostly MTDs (yeah, plural!) and F-bass... and it outlived his fenders and musicmans (musicmen?), competing against the top notch of basses before he finally had to let it go, and i did practically prise it from his hands. good luck with the sale!
GCYPbass Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 thank you all for your good comments [quote name='Tech' post='168093' date='Apr 1 2008, 11:56 PM']competing against the top notch of basses[/quote] I agree with you. it is good as much as fenders and musicmans (or musicmen as you told )

MB1 Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 MB1. Fernandes basses are very much underestimated!....tried a lawsuit Fernandes/Alembic series 2 copy from the Manchester Bass Centre (when it was open) this was a great bass,i can understand why Alembic filed the papers, it even had the seperate power supply.......they even copied the case! BUMP!

tuss Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 I bought one of these in the early 90's second hand, never knew the model name though!! These are excellent basses and mine has served me well, having done countless gigs over the years. Although I mainly use Spectors now, I would say these basses are easily in the same class as a Spector Euro in terms of playability and tone. Only reason I'm not using mine at the moment is the pots need replacing and Fernandes spares aren't that easy to source, especially when you don't know the model name!!

They are good as much as fenders, musicmans, spectors, warwicks etc. How is yours? Could you please send me some photos of it? I'am wondering about to see photos of it [quote name='kennyrodg' post='399792' date='Feb 4 2009, 11:02 AM']PM'd.........................again.[/quote] PM replied............again.
