My first multiscale (experimental)

Two small updates:
  1. As fantastic as the Big Blades are (and they are!), I ordered a set of 916 Super Ferrites from @Matt Kustom to try. I asked him if he could do exposed blades, since I like that look, and he obliged for a nominal upcharge. He is quick and his work is very precise! The Super Ferrites have that unique combination of heft and clarity, and I’m really enjoying them in this bass. Thanks Matt!
  2. I picked up a secondhand Lusithand double filter preamp, and decided to try it in this bass. So now it’s four knobs, two of which are push/pull for extra resonance on each filter. I like it so far! I’ll leave it here for a while, and try to do a long-term evaluation.

I am still very much enjoying this instrument, and I still think about how it almost became firewood, but instead somehow rose to the top of the group of regular gig basses. :angel:
Thank you for the compliment Sir. Great looking bass. The blades really add a certain pop top the look
