My Coda 5 Deluxe arrived 3 hours ago but I had to be snapped back into realty and take some quick photos. The Coda's real color is not captured by the camera. It has a pearl luminescent copper green hue to it in the light that the camera doesn't catch, except a tiny bit on the lower horn at the tip on 1 picture. It's an overcast and spitting snow day. The strings are set super low to the neck, the neck's thickness front to back is super thin! much like my former Forte 5 or even thinner, I'll take neck measurements when I go put the GHS Precision Flats custom's on and send the measurements to Patrick. Very fast neck! It's an oiled neck. :D This Coda 5 Deluxe definitely says "High Quality" big time!!! :bassist::hyper::D Enjoy the photos!

Good God, man. That's unreal looking. Some mighty fine Spector porn there. Congrats and Enjoy! :hyper:

Congrats Mike!!! WOW!!! :eek: That thing is SUPER SEXY!!!! :bassist::bassist:

that coda is amazing. congrats! I wonder if they'd do a deluxe in a solid finish. I like the no pickguard look and the control layout better than the standard pickguard and control plate look.

Good God, man. That's unreal looking. Some mighty fine Spector porn there. Congrats and Enjoy! :hyper:

^^^^Thank you guys! Time to get back playing! :bassist:
 
Here's a question posed to me by my guitarist. I'm planning to swap out my EMG 40HZ in my Rebop for a 40P5 and a 40J, and the TonePump for an EMG BQC or USA 18V. I'm also swapping the bridge to one with intonation screws.

I'm going to be left with the guts from my ReBop, and I have an old Fender MIM P-bass that has a bad J-bass Bridge route & is gutted. What do you guys think about putting the 40HZ's, the TonePump & bridge in my P? Give it a Fender Rebop kind of flair. Think it would sound similar?? I know the pickups are oversized, but I'm going to have to cover the bad bridge route with a 4" pick-up anyways...

Any thoughts on this, guys? Would it sound similar to a Rebop?
 
Awesome!
Beautiful top. Love the color.
Just be careful moving it indoors too quickly! I'd hate for that finish to crack...

Enjoy it. It looks super sexy.
Thanks JPS! Hope to use a good camera other than my iPhone 4 when we get some sun.
