This Sonus 4 is listed on my local CL. It's described as a 1995 model, but I've never seen one with the metal control plate. Also says it has "factory installed" Seymour Duncan pickups. Anyone have any insight as to whether or not its been modded?

How much?I don’t play 5’s anymore, so I’ve considered selling this.. but for some reason every time I take it out for pictures it goes right back in the closet. Maybe I’ll come back to 5’s one day.

Have you heard 'Swing Low, Sweet Chariot - Sample' by Sasha Tkacheff on SoundCloud?
From a recent session.
I love the sound of my Zon.

I'm about to list a Zon Sonus special. I swapped out the ZON brass bridge for a Hipshot aluminum A type to shed a couple ounces. Should I swap it back or just leave it? Thoughts? I'm not going to sell it with both for sure.
As an option purchase you can offer the other bridge, which matches the holes drilled for it.
Does anyone know where this bass ended up?

A 19 mm spacing Zon 6-string is one of my dream basses...

Trivia: when I was considering a Zon back in 2017, I played that very bass at Jive Sound. In short, I was so impressed with its build quality and playability (even though I'm a five-string guy!) that I decided to order a Zon, and I'm happy I did.
Good luck finding that one, it's a beauty for sure!

Wow, I bet that bass is a beast! I have a Legacy Elite Special 6, and it's at the other end of the spectrum: 16.5mm-ish spacing. I figured that all the Zon 6'ers were similar, but I think it speaks to Joe's willingness to make custom instruments that an instrument with this spacing even exists. I really enjoy seeing the different stuff that has come out of the Zon shop over the years.
Does anybody know that owns a Zon if this product is safe to use for cleaning the body of the instrument?

Have you received your bass yet?My approach was to order a Zon... drool over some Fodera standards at Sweetwater, buy one, and now the wait for my Zon is a little easier
