nobodysprefect Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 My goodness. Michael will not use purpleheart in fretboards apart from Gouche basses, and it's got a pretty nice look and tone to it, so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrammeFriday Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Oh my. I have the (comparatively) cheap and cheerful Kingston version of this, and it is fantastic, so goodness knows how good this must be. 'Stratospheric' would be my guess. GLWTS!

nobodysprefect Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Drool. I missed an AG6 by a hair. My bloodwood-ebony 635 proooobably sounds pretty close to this one, according to how Mike describes tone woods. If so, that would make this here bass the best (my careful and weighed estimation! ) five-string bass for RnB and other modern afro-american music stuff where you need a full - no, make that HUGE - bottom for that rnb sound and an explosive attack because the mixes are so thick. To me, nothing works as well for, say, Beyonce numbers. Did I mention you can totally throw pops within fingerstyle lines and you, the player, gets to choose the relative dynamics between fingerstyle and popped notes? Someone buy this one so it stops taunting me! edited to add: Chris doesn't stress this enough: you can NOT get an MTD with purpleheart fretboard without buying an Andrew Gouche model! Go listen to Andrew's tone here [url="http://youtu.be/VFmP_fRCz5U"]http://youtu.be/VFmP_fRCz5U[/url] Chops are prooooobably not included with this bass.
