Huge sound from that Callowhill with Nate Smith on Utube. Superb performance.

Great great 5 strings PBass. The best i ve tested.

does anyone have information on the availability of Fender Mustang JMJ for Europe ? Thomann keeps postponing the arrival date of the bass.

Merci Greg !

And how about the global finition of the instrument ?

I would like those who have already received their bass can give us a global opinion on the sound quality of the instrument.

Shipping to Europe ?

My 5501 is back with his new character. Yes I speak of new character. Before it was quite tiring, still screaming, kind of a shrill voice, a sort of evil shrew tamed. The frequency of ill-chosen original preamp gave way to ... a simple passive tone. Two Bartolini pickups mk5 took place...
