It looks/sounds like this video was taken at the NAMM show. It bass sounds pretty decent. In fact I like it a lot.
According to the Veilette site the Centaur has a 2-band preamp. It looks like the setup is Vol-blend-treble-bass maybe.
Thank you for the link Marshall.
Thanks much Bob!
I wanted to bring it by sometime, but I sent it back to Martin a while ago for some electronics work. I think Martin fell in love with it, because he offered to make me another body with the pickup locations I requested (closer together). Since there was still enough koa and mahogany, I'm taking him up on the offer. It will have the original neck, which was beyond perfect, with that luminous ebony. What a guy!
So in a while, I'll update this thread with a new bass!
