|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: Sheepshead bay, Brooklyn, NYC | | | with the boutique fender knockoff market already so glutted with established makers, I wonder how this idea ever got the green light?..my guess is we will see a limited run of these basses, then they will become cool collector's pieces for people who really love their deep talkin' flats... |

Love how a filthy rug (cracker crumbs?) was chosen as the background for the photos used in their first bass offering.

Sorry, not something I would jump on.
I like their strings though!

Notice that there's no access to the truss rod at either end of the neck. You have to take the neck off to do a setup. How dumb is that?

3 grand for another p-bass clone with an ugly headstock...

Pensa, Atelier Z. Not unproven, has history of bass making. You guys seem more interested in bashing it than finding out more about it. I do agree with you about another expensive Fender clone, but people buy them every day.
