All original. I usually swap pickups or pre but I thought this one sounds great as is. This one gets the least play of the bunch and Uncle Sam just came knocking...

Beautiful bass! The newer pickups and electronics are pretty darn versatile and you can't get a bad tone - actually, you get an awesome tone!

I'd like to hear what it sounds like. How are the harmonics compared to the ebony or maple necks; darker sound I'm guessing. I used to have an mvp 6 17mm but couldn't get used to the spacing, but I'm looking for another possibly. Also can I ask what pu's/preamp do you use for your other Pedulla's.

Sorry, but I have no sound clips...
Does not have the "ping" of ebony and not as crisp as maple but has a good even response. Its the brightest rosewood board I ever owned, due to the all maple body. It is quite a good slapper, too.
I have one Thunderbolt with Nordstrand Fatstacks and Aguilar OBP-2, one with Bartolini Classic bass humbuckers and Glockenklang 3 band. My Rapture jazz has Bartolini Bright stacked jazz pickups and BassMods preamp.
