    Recent purchase from fellow TB'er and this bass is AMAZING. I have a limited time to pick up another potential bass I have wanted so going to put this up for sale...for now at least

    Per Geoff Gould there were likley 10 or less of these made; 30.5 inch scale with a superb tone and playability. Geoff's direct quote to me..."those are mean little machines!"

    Super clean for its age I would say 9 of 10, not sure of all woods but believe top and part of back are ebony. Oh and also...NO neck dive it balances perfectly which is always a crapshoot on a short scale bass. It has a super fat tone, hard to believe it kicks out the low end that it does but its impressive and has a great feeling neck.

    Passive V/V/T? Humbuckers p/ups? String spacing at bridge?

    Will have to get string spacing for you...on other yes its V/V/T with original EMG humbuckers but the pickups are active (takes a battery but no pre-amp or anything)

    Being the previous owner of this bass I can assure it is a killer thunderous bass. It is special, with none of the "short-comings" (no pun intended) usually found in shorter scales.
    Adam is a great guy to deal with, whoever gets this one will be glad he did!

    String spacing @ bridge is 2 inches..pretty well spaced vs. some other Modulus's I have owned that had very narrow spacing.

    Wow! 2nd coolest bass I've ever seen. Out of my budget though.
