Oooo, yum yum...

Something to possibly tempt @ped - maybe too many strings.

It's true my Ped name evolved from Pedullaman because I played an MVP 4 string when I joined Bassworld. It was a brilliant bass. I can't remember why I sold it to be honest, but I've gone off the shape a bit. This one is a bit odd because it doesn't have the normal MVP shape and the fingerboard is unusual; usually the fretless 'Buzz/Pentabuzz/Hexabuzz' models have a super shiny coated (ebony?) board. I don't recall any maple boards but I seem to remember a more budget line with different hardware, pickups and slightly different shape so maybe it's one of those.

Bolt-on as well - aren't the Buzz line all neck-through?

If you look at the TRC you can see it says "Series II". This is a lower-cost model made in the late 80s and early 90s.

 

For me everything that makes the Pedulla Buzz special is missing from this bass.

I'm going to start billing @TheGreek - it's a jolly nice bass, nicer than the Corvette fretless that I pxed for it. It was at Bass Bros, about 40 miles away from me so a nice little trip out.

Hmmm, In that case I may have to start charging a commission on all the really nice basses I bring to your attention.

 

Probably the best proposition is for me to message Mrs tauzero with details of gear I think will tempt you and offer to withhold that info so that she can buy shoes and handbags with the money instead. 😉😉

You can then "discourage" me from doing this by offering to reinstate my original proposition thus eliminating the shoes/handbag scenario.

 

 

How would you like to proceed?? 😆😆
