Can anyone tell me what bass this is???????????

looks like a Music Man Saber (not sure about the name), It's basically a Stingray with another Humbucker at the neck.

 

Yeah it's cutless, they don't make those anymore I'm shure it has a great punch.

 

are you sure? it looks like an esp b104 with a new preamp (i heard he uses an esp too)

 

actually at 2nd look its definitely not an esp,what was i thinking,sorry

 

Actually, it could be either a Sabre or a Cutlass. I believe the only difference between the two was that the Cutlass had a graphite neck. The lighting in the picture is such that I can't tell if the headstock is maple (Sabre) or a grey/black finish (Cutlass)

 

if it's got a graphite neck it's a Musicman Cutlass 2.

the Cutlass 1 had one pickup as on a Stingray, and the Cutlass 2 had 2 pickups, like a Sabre.
both had graphite necks.

 

Marcello is definitely an ESP endorser and uses the ESP model bass that has the same configuration as the Cutlass 2...but that definitely looks like the real thing!!!

 

re. Cutlasses,
the graphite necks were made by Modulus.
maybe there was some kind of disagreement between the two companies.

It's interesting that on the recent special edition Stingrays, Musicman chose to fit graphite necks by Status instead.

the Sabre never sold as well as the Stingray, so got killed off- there were rumours of a 2 pickup version of the Sterling being developed though.

 

I dont know what kind that is, but if i find one, im getting it, I want one.

 

bump

 

bump again

 

could it be a G&L l-2000?

 

I heard something like Modulus stopped licensing their necks when they started making entire instruments themselves.

 

I'm pretty sure that Peavey got Modulus to make the graphite necks for the Brian Bromberg BQuad bass and the G-bass...maybe they started licensing them again later.

 

No, the headstock is definitely a Musicman. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess it's a Cutlass. Something about the way the fingerboard and headstock are reflecting light just doesn't look like wood to me. Could be wrong.
