Might be hard to answer, but what does the bass sound like? Not clear on mahogany's tonal character compared to alder or ash.
Thanks!

Thanks! | It does have VTC and the mahogany body seems a bit more resonate and live, but it is hard to tell as I cant't compare it to anything else I have with soaps.
Thanks Chris, I appreciate your support.

|  | No matter where you go, there you are... | | Join Date: Jan 2002 Location: Chicago (south suburbs) | | | I have done multiple high dollar deals with Bob, and he is as good as it gets here on TB IME and IMO. This is (yet another) a superb instrument from Bob that I would not hesitate to make a move on - if I didn't already have a NYC 5 with a Mahogany body and Brazilian fboard (that I got from Bob!). Buy with confidence!

This is a quality instrument with action as low as you can go.

Amboyna burl is a particularly expensive type of burl, costing $18.00 b/f to $22.00 b/f, much more than bigleaf maple burl, for example. It comes from Padauk trees (Pterocarpus spp.) of Southeast Asia. Padauk trees are quite common but the burl is extremely rare. The amboyna is usually a deep red, although the more rare moudui burl is the same species but the color is from golden yellow to yellow-orange.
Joel..... Thanks and great PJ5 BTW!

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Annapolis, Maryland | | | I was the original owner of this bass, I bought it from Roger when he was at the Brooklyn shop. I would describe the tone as tight and focused with a nice mid range punch. You will not get lost in the mix with this bass. Wish I had the $$ to buy it back. Bump for a great bass! |
