Jellyfish Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 The string spacing looks rather pleasant on this, what is the spacing exactly?

knoxz Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) No it's a passion III from 1999. The fingerboard is Phenolwood, it's like ebony but in moar reactif! The body is Maple and Aulne combined Last Neck-Thru version with Benedetti. 1 tone, 1 EQ, 1 balance and a 3-position switch. The neck dive is comparable to Warrior usa bass, "fast and easy neck".. 3,2~3,4kg . Cut thru the mix really perfectly, some metal player use them. The necrophagist bassist have the same version with the same setting. http://sp6.fotolog.com/photo/38/15/46/4__cuerdas/1236661038868_f.jpg It's the perfect weapon for the percussives techniques like tapping, slapping, and fast playing.

Beneath It All Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks guys...Definitely a series 3 then?...... tried a new passion at Bass Direct a couple of years ago and it[mostly] sounded like every other modern bass, nothing like the series 1[or maybe a series 2] I owned many years back - shades of Alembic & Kubicki basses if my memory serves!.....Now that's the sound I want..

[/quote] The string spacing at the bridge is 18mm, but I believe it's adjustable. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
Jellyfish Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 No problem at all, if you know whether the bridge goes down to 16.5mm, let me know as I have the cash ready and waiting.

Jellyfish Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 It was love at first sight at the London Bass Guitar Show this weekend so I will have to pass on this unfortunately. Good luck with the sale though, here's a free bump. :-)
