Awwww you guys are jerks, I am getting gas for a pedulla. I am buying a new bass this spring, I was sure I was going to get a bongo, but those pedulla's are very nice.
I say, I've played on two, a Pentabuzz (best looking bass I've ever held) and a Rapture 5 string. They both were the most comfortable basses I've ever played, sounded spectacular as well. I've been GAS'ing for a Warwick or a Fodera, but am strongly considering a Pedulla instead. If I ever go fretless, in my opinion, there is no other option except the Buzz.

Just bumping this back to the front... I love all three of my Pedullas, though my HexaBuzz holds a special place...

Not the best pictures, I was a little excited that day (it arrived two months earlier than expected, only about a week after ordering it, I had just walked in the door with it...). The other two are a fretless Rapture J2 and a fretted Rapture J2000, I have better pictures of them (not with me or on the server, I posted them back in Nov. 2003 so they are gone and I'm borrowing net access at the moment). The Pedulla basses are so well built and customer service is so good that I think they are more than worth every penny. My HexaBuzz hasn't even needed adjustment (I've stayed with the OEM strings on it) since I recieved it a year ago, and we have seen weather extremes here in Central Ohio in that time. It even came through the 5 days without power thanks to the ice storm that made this past December so much fun without the neck moving at all. The Raptures have been adjusted seasonally (humidity varies wildly around here), but they are more traditionally built.

Mike, I'm just curious. Is that a coated rosewood board or is it the photo? It sure doesn't look like ebony.
I was never quite sure. A few years back I called them to ask and it was suggested to me "to get rid of that thing and get a new one."

Hmmm... I haven't heard a Bart J / J, just the soapbars and P / J in the MVP.
How do you feel about the Bart P / J combo, as in the MVP clip?

Nice Hexabuzz DeLorean.
Here is one I sold in 2003... It was like transparent NyQuil over Maple Top:

Oh, all right. ThunderBolt 5 fretless, AAA top, gold hardware, TBT electronics (before it was standard).
I had a 4 string #356 which I loved. This is my custom 5 which I loved more. They were both stolen a couple years back in NYC but man do I want another mvp5! You guys are killing me.

I was curious if anyone had any clips of their various Buzzzes, I still have Major HexaBuzz Gas (DeLorean I think yours takes the cake). Anyways we don't have any around here and I'd really like to get a good sample of one.
The bass line throughout is a 4 string Buzz through an RBI into a VS880.sargebaker said:

not the best example but this is my rapture with pretty dead string recorded directly through soundcard
and please excuse the drum track, I had to play it on a keyboard
or you can just listen to songs by Muse, their bassist use rapture I believe
