Mike had some awesome basses at NAMM, as usual.

Including a 6-string Nuance:



And check out the flamed maple!

Not sure.

Those Nuances look awesome! But I've still got a sweet spot for the Thunderbass.

Quick question for the pedulla experts here.
I recently came across this bass on CL and was wondering what you guys thought was a fair price.
Some interesting things that make it a little unique (as far as i can tell) from regular Buzz's.
It only has 3 knobs, EMG pickups, no figured top (or at least it is covered up) and a solid, non transparent black finish, and gold hardware.
According to the serial number he gave me it is from 1992. It also has the "M.V. Pedulla Guitars" logo on the headstock and what appeares to be "deluxe USA" on the truss cover.
There are definitely some small nicks and dings in the finish.
Is this a true Penta buzz or something that preceded it?
From what i have been able to tell most instruments like it have been going for around $800. He has it listed much higher than that and is comparing the price to the list prices of new Penatbuzz's which is obviously not accurate.

I've never see one in that great a shape go for $800. A Buzz in this condition would go for at least double the figure you quoted.

Maybe it was MVP's that were coming up like that. I was just having a hard time finding Buzz's with that 3 knob/EMG setup... and also Buzz's that didn't have a figured top and translucent finish

Yeah, the only Buzz/MVPs I've seen in that range were 4 strings with serious wear and/or other issues. It looks like it has the most recent bridge (ABM?) instead of the Schaller I think they used in the early '90s.

Is that wear along the top edge of the bass, or just a reflection? How is the wear on the fingerboard? As always when checking out a used Pedulla, be absolutely certain that the truss rod is fully functional and the truss rod nut isn't stripped! Pedullas use a 4-sided nut that's easily stripped with hex wrench tools.

[Folmeister]

Just got this mid-eighties buzz 4 for a killer price!



Just need a new TRC and some replacement screws for the back plate.

That is just reflection... the only wear is some minor dings in the finish. I haven''t seen it in person yet so not sure about the truss. I havent had a close up on the fingerboard yet but based on one of the other pics he sent me there looks to be a decent amount of FB wear.

Nice! Looks like a mate for my Pentabuzz!

[mark beem]

Beautiful basses! I'd love to have a PentaBuzz!
