Pedulla Thunderbass 5--$1200

Sign in to disble this ad
This is a beautiful neckthru Pedulla from 1996. It plays, sounds and looks great. It has heaps of wear but from a few feet away you don't notice. I've tried to show the wear but it blends into the bass. There is one spot at the p/u where it's worn into the wood (thumb mojo). The white spots are reflection, not wear. It has very low action and is super easy to play. I've used it the last few years for an aggressive Rhumba/Flamenco gig where there are speedy lines and chords because it plays so easy.
Spacing= 16 -17.5ish mm adjustable bridge
24 fret Maple/Ebony board
Sorry, no scale, but it's not heavy. I'd guess it's under 9 lbs.
Bottom line is it's a very fun bass to play.
Price drop to 1200-

More Pix

In response to some inquiry I'm posting more pix. Frets are in good shape though my photo skills don't display it so much.
A few other shots as well:

You're right about that, she'll never notice another bass
but she'll notice the charge

Dang, I sure hope a Thunderbass like this for a similar price pops up around tax time! I should have gotten one of these when GC was blowing them out back in 2008!

Thanks guys, it is a great bass and a joy to play.
To answer a few ?'s: The wear is nothing more than buckle rash and various nicks. The frets are in decent shape, it plays great now and has plenty of room for a dress or 2 in the future. Above in post #4 are frets 3-5 and I'm putting 1-3 here in this post. Thanks for the trade offers and I'll continue to look at anything interesting but... I really am trying to make space here so I am hoping to sell outright. It will come in your choice, HSC or bag. Shipping will be on your dime. Frets 1-3:
