Waldo Posted October 10, 2007 Author Posted October 10, 2007 [quote]Hmm, you must be reading something I can't find! AFAIK, they don't come as standard, they never used used to. Perhaps they do now, although I can't find anything that says that. The fact that the Modulus site is years out of date doesn't help really.... Badass come as standard now but bever used to. I have one of the very sexy older bridges Chris[/quote] Ahh, well that explains it then! That might also explain why the price for the bass is less now (as you don't factor the bridge into it) Cheers for that

SMART Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 Not quite Chris. No, the Badass II is still a custom option (though not listed on the official Modulus site) and is not standard issue with a 'standard' Flea bass with is usually equipped with a very good Modulus bridge was a Gotoh in the past who are a Japanese hardware manufacturer of the highest order. 99% of customers wanting Fleas want the exact same spec as Flea and that = a Badass II bridge amongst other things. Hope that helps! Enjoy the Flea when it's ready. Ciao Ian

Ciao Ian
