bloke_zero Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 That is a thing of beauty! I love those Warmoth bodies - would you say the mahogany colours the sound much? Do you have any examples of how it sounds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but I don’t have any samples the bass sounds really huge and organic... the balance between magnetic pickup and piezo and preamp can allow to move from warm and deeper sound to more bright and modern fretless tone. the piezo is really useful to Add some treble without sounding too “glassy”. The preamp was designed specifically for this bass, it’s a three-way with cut/boost. there is no need to have the passive tone as cutting the highs results in the same result as closing the passive tone.

Delberthot Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) I think that the body might have formed part of my Warmoth bass. Mine was mahogany with gold flake finish and before I sold it I had a gold precision bridge cover fitted and it looks like the screw holes are where they would have been on the body. The original neck was wenge with ebony fretboard It was already an incredible bass so I can only imagine what the added piezo and active preamp make it sound like now. The pics don't do the finish justice, it's really incredible when under stage lights Edited January 9, 2020 by Delberthot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloke_zero Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I bought this custom precision from @foya and I am very happy - he packed it very very well and it arrived in the UK safe and sound - I've been playing it for a couple of hours and I am very impressed with the way it has been put together - Thanks Foya! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
