rhysyjob Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 …. So after buying a superb secondhand Vigier Excess 5 from Mattbass6 on this forum, I realised I’m not such an intuitive 5 string player and sold it on vowing that I would get another Vigier. Being simply blown away by the craftsmanship I had to get a 4 string. One pilgrimage to Bass Direct in Warwick (thanks Ashley and Mark) later, I am the proud owner of this beauty… My goodness it’s fast, punchy, modern and I love it! 😊 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookPassBabtridge Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Very nice! I have one of these bad boys in blue (see Vigier p*rn thread). It's exactly as you described, you're going to love yours! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigwan Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I will own one of these some day. The Excess is SO good, I can only imagine what this is like... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thodrik Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Very nice! I love the metal 'V' added on the headstock. It just looks a bit classier that the painted on logo on my 2009-ish Arpege from the earlier run of the Series IVs. Love that finish too! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your bass is fantastic! Any playing clips? What is the fingerboard made from? I'm now a bit of a fan of Vigier Passions and would especially love to try a fretless one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven’t already be sure to check out Pascal Mulot playing his Passion on YouTube. The man is a beast! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
