Holy gas attack, Pedulla Man!

Oh my FSM. I NEVER thought it would be as amazing as it was. I went to Guitar Center. Yes, it is the forbidden place, but it was close. Anyway, Pedulla. I played a 5 string Buzz. I got it plugged into a MB head. That was into a GK cab. It wasn't what my dream rig would be, but the Pedulla was the key there. I don't think I've ever played anything as... WOW... as that. I played some poorly set up basses there... I've had my hands on the higher end and boutique basses in Bass Club Chicago. Even a beautiful Fodera of my friends. Spector had become my new love, but I began to fall for Warwick. Then I decided I wanted an ERB, but shortly afterward I wanted to build my own. Now, while I'm still working on my build, that bass... That's the bass that I'm approaching next. I don't think I've ever felt anything that *right* in my hands. Now I get what it means :hyper::hyper::hyper:

I have the fretted version (MVP 5) in the same finish.

I'm still trying to bond with it.

It's very nice...but I'm more of a StingRay guy.

If you have a StingRay5 and wanna trade or want a great cash deal...I work in

Chicagoland. :cool:

They are certainly nice basses. I had bad GAS for a 5 string Rapture, JJ config. But all I ever got to try out were 19mm, and I really need closer string spacing. So, you gonna go get it, or what? Good luck with it, anyway, hope you do.

Maybe not just this moment, the gas odd because I always go splurge on my birthday... which is all the way in January. That's a while from now, but then again, you can't really control it, can you? I tried out a Rapture there and a Thunderbass, they had four on either side of the Buzz all at an angle, and the Buzz set straight (Like this: \\\\ | ////) which of course made the Buzz catch my eye, but I'd never been a huge fan of the body shape, so I decided to take it for a spin. Man-oh-man did that do it for me. I know what I'm getting for my birthday :D

Edit: I should probably point out the fact that the semi awkward looking body shape (imo) was actually extremely comfortable on my lap, but I hadn't tried it with a strap. All is well. :p
