I don't know why, but I find him to be an annoying egotistical guy.

The whole Vulf thing smacks of "cool geeks" to me.

I get the single vol/no tone control thing but not sure I'd want no volume control.

 

[sonojono]

We all knew this was coming lmao. Preordered

I don't know why, but I find him to be an annoying egotistical guy. You would think that in an introduction video that they could at least get it to sound better than a farty cell phone recording. I'll stick with my 5 knob preamp.

I haven't gotten his cool factor either, but I do enjoy his bass playing. Sometimes it's like that. Needing to separate the person from their music and enjoy it for what it is. I do agree the video doesn't make the bass sound great... Looking forward to hearing samples from members here who buy it!

That's exactly what they are: band nerds and music majors who wear RayBans, and I love it. But this is so dumb.

 

[ahc]

I'm waiting for the '27 model release. Rumor has it it will have no neck.

 

[Naviiin]

Damn I should've bought that 2 or 3 last year. 1 has the pickup config I have the least use for.

Interesting how in the description on the webpage he says "JACK STRATTON AND I HAD A VISION — A BASS PARED DOWN TO ITS ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS. NOTHING EXTRA, NOT EVEN A VOLUME KNOB. THE FIRST BASS I KNOW OF WITHOUT ONE. AND THUS, WE CALL THIS BASS 'THE VISION.'" (sorry for the all-caps, I copied and pasted from the website) Umm, Anthony Jackson? Maybe rename it, 'SOMEONE ELSE'S VISION'?

 

[BassicJazzy]

I think it's extra if you want an output plug?

$46,750?! I don't even have words... Thank goodness I don't like Fodera basses

 

[No such thing]

Eventually Joe Dart will just have Bass notes magically appear around him, no instrument required.

MM will sell you his best wishes for $699.

The hate is silly. Innovation is great. Anything new is just a reason to see if it works or not. I wish it came in 5 colors.

Pfft! Next, you'll want it to come with a volume knob.
Or a pickup.
Or tuning heads.

 

[Norm Nelson]

Guys, come on. It's exactly a month late, that's all.

 

[Yahboy]

SBMM has benefited greatly from Dart's signature electric bass on multiple occasions.

I believe Dart Bongo will coming next...... $899. Plus dummy knobs off cause.

 

[Chicken Wing]

I met Jack at a festival. He was very kind

I think that's part of the joke.

 

[Gogoplata1980]

I think that's part of the joke.

That was my read as well. On his IG he actually played it and gave a better representation of how it sounds.

 

[SpankBazz]

Looks cool, but no thanks.
I'm good with the original.

 

[urkel3000]

Joe dart always reminds me of Booger from revenge of the nerds
