Form Factor Audio Wombat SS5. Absolute beast of a bass and I'm afraid I'll regret letting this go. But I've gone over my limit of basses. If the others sell first I'll pull this one. Aguilar Super Double pickups and OBD3 pre with push pull passive mode. It has a Wal inspired body and balances great. Currently strung with EB Cobalt Flats. Excellent condition there is one finish mark visible on the front that was there when I purchased it. Maybe previous owners thumb spot?

Did not come with a gig bag but I can include a gray gator transit bag with purchase.

I believe the bass in this video is this actual bass.

It's an interesting bass. Unfortunately the guy doing the demo was more focused on demonstrating his chops and not what the instrument actually sounds like. I think he played 3 notes fast and hard notes on the B string.

Maybe I'm just getting old and curmudgeonly, but why is it so many gear review demos of guitar and bass is 99% the person showing off their chops and 1% a demonstration of the sound of the instrument itself?

It drives me insane

they could at least go through and just play some whole Notes let the sound of the instrument ring for a second or two. Maybe pan between pickups, adjust EQ a little bit, play the same riff to sample the sound of finger, pick and slap and then at the end, go crazy and show us how great of a player you are.

is that asking too much?

sorry. Just the rantings of a grumpy old man

that link still doesn’t answer the string spacing question. What’s the string spacing at the bridge?

And, just to be clear - is the bass listed in that link this exact bass model and specs?… I’m assuming it is
