Cosmo Valdemar Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Probably an impossible question to answer, but how does it compare tonally to a Precision? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aldude Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I'm wondering how this compares to a jazz - in terms of sound, though I'm familiar with the U-retro preamp and know you can get a massive range of sounds from that one, but also in terms of general feel and playability.

[/quote] As sounds go it only has one pup BUT the p retro allows you to choose and boost the mids so you can get some honk. I always backed off the bridge and had the neck pup full on my jazzes so that was more of a thumpy sound anyway. As far as in the hand goes it's got a 40mm nut width so slightly wider than a traditional jazz at 38mm but I would say it is a faster neck than any jazz I have had and it feels great in the hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime_BASS Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I would have brought this had it had a bridge pickup, but I went with a dual pickup Finn instead. To anyone thinking of buying this, do it. Great basses from ACG, can't seem put mine down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] It is a great bass and the p retro allows you to exploit the one pup to get a good variety of tones. My custom ACG has a PB at the neck and an RFB at the bridge. All coupled through a four way switch and p retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
