Kind of Tele like headstock. Appropriate. http://www.themusiczoo.com/product/5...k%2017campaign |

I haven't been playing long enough to have formed such an opinion, but I like the color. The shape isn't too extreme, fairly generic, tele-like as someone else pointed out. This is the first 4-stringer that has really grabbed my attention.

It is in French, but at the end when the guy demonstrates the sound through all of the switch positions, the bass does all the talking. |

Unless, of course, another perfect bass comes along by then. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2000 Location: West Warwick, RI | | | I just got one in last week and all I can say is WOW! The done is somewhere between a Musicman and a Jbass. The neck is slim like a J, but rounded like a 50's style P. I was actually surprised to find out that it was passive because this bass is loud! I'm hoping that Godin offeres more color and neck choises in the future (I'm thinking a surf green, with a maple neck and a tort pickguard would absolutly rock).

I didn't have the heart to plug it in though. I know I would have gotten it if it sounded as good as it looked,felt!!! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
