Fleabay85 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Very rare custom bass from '99. It was designed by MTD . The pickups and preamps are bartolini. The neck is hybrid (carbon+wood). The neck is very straight with low action. The neck finish is colored a little because of the age. This is 24 Fret instrument with great balance and huge sound. Comes with original modulus case.

Fleabay85 Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Wish I have to time to play it so currently I don't have any sample Edited March 3, 2020 by Fleabay85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itu Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I bought a black Genesis 5 last year from @graham1945. The body is big and a bit on the heavy side but it does not feel bulky at all. This was my choice after a Quantum 5. bartolinis are very low noise, I think they are wound that way. Truss rod is under the carbon plate at the bridge end of the neck. A real workhorse for the one who needs a serious tool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearhart74 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Sounds like a great 70's jazz bass ive had two genesis 5 strings. the carbon fiber in the neck makes them very temp stable. Edited March 3, 2020 by bearhart74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
