rhysyjob Posted November 21, 2021 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
mattbass6 Posted November 21, 2021 Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) That’s a real beauty, mate. Wow! Love it! The perfect colour too 😉 Can’t wait to hear it live one day. Enjoy, and congrats ☺️ Edited November 21, 2021 by mattbass6 1 Quote

CookPassBabtridge Posted November 21, 2021 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
Bigwan Posted November 21, 2021 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
Doctor J Posted November 21, 2021 Posted November 21, 2021 Amazing looking thing. Congratulations! 1 Quote
thodrik Posted November 22, 2021 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

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

I'm now a bit of a fan of Vigier Passions and would especially love to try a fretless one Phenowood I believe - essentially a mix of wood and carbon fibre. If you haven’t already be sure to check out Pascal Mulot playing his Passion on YouTube. The man is a beast! 2 Quote
