I gotta say I like it!

Check out these pickups:

They come with a coil tap switch. Me likey!
 
WOW! I like it! Killer curves & lines! It won't sway me from passive instruments, but 1 active bass in the stable wouldn't hurt any. :D

If the 5-string comes out in Lizard Burst Green I'd have a conniption trying to figure out which color looked better. But I'd go for the green - me thinks!
 
The body is the same design as the 7&8 string Agile intrepid guitar line.
I must admit, this thing looks really really great, any chance for a sixer?

EDIT: Yep I replied too fast, I know :)

The Intrepid body style was designed based upon the Defiant 6 Brices. :) I wanted one so bad, but they sold out before I got money together. This is my first time seeing Defiants in over a year now...and they have a 5 and a lizardburst?! Shame they're all righty. :crying:
 
It IS passive....

:o Even better - now I can stay honest with my Passive Club membership, LOL! Seriously though - I jumped the gun in my post earlier this afternoon. I assumed most of those Brices were active electronics instruments. Fully reading the specs, and seeing that this is truly passive makes this even more appealing, but the 35" kinda puts me off a little bit. Limits things down to a few manufacturers, IMO. :hmm:
