FS/FT Pedulla MVP 5 - SOLD £1595

[Scooby]

Finally, after putting the Pedulla up for sale a couple of years ago...

Here, again, is my 1989 Pedulla MVP 5 in a cherry sunburst. It is in amazing condition for its age with only a very tiny chip on the back of the headstock, and a couple of tiny marks below the neck pick-ups. All difficult to see unless very, very close! )

 

 

"All Pedulla instruments are proudly handcrafted in the U.S.A. using the finest woods, electronics, hardware, and building techniques.  We do not offer (nor have we ever offered) any “import” models. Each and every Pedulla bass is made here in our shop in Massachusetts by me, Michael Pedulla."

Based on the unique design that first brought M.V. Pedulla to prominence, the MVP 5-string bass combines hard-hitting tone with player-friendly ergonomics, making them favorite basses for the stage and studio alike. The MVP is a fretted bass guitar featuring neck-through body construction for superb sustain and tone, plus a sleek and facile neck shape, ebony fingerboard, and a beautifully sculpted flamed maple body. The ergonomic design includes a deep cutaway on the treble side for easy access to all 24 frets, and an extended bass-side horn that provides a perfect balance point when a strap is used.

A three-piece laminated maple neck passes through the entire length of the body, providing maximum focus and sustain. In addition, a double-acting truss rod and two steel stiffening bars in the neck reinforce and maintain stability. The 24-fret ebony fingerboard is inlaid with 5mm pearl dots, and its hardness resists wear and contributes to the MVP's distinctive tone and sustain.
