The Official MARUSZCZYK CLUB!

"Normal" 6-strings are too wide for my stumpy fingers. (I've considered a Bass IV-style instrument (probably the Ibanez SRC6), but given the scale length, I'd tune it EADGCF.)
So, tried Delano Delano PC 4 AL + JC 4 AL set on my Jake - sooo much more mids than Haussels! Haussel is a bit "fat" and "sterile" sounding, but lacks sound of "true" singles)
P.S.: Obviously sticked to Delano's - I only regret that there was no chance to buy their pups with large pole pieces. Dem Russia

I'll have Delano Extenders in my Frog headless. I'm really keen on seeing how they actually sound. I love the Haeussel singles in my Elwood Europe, but I have not comparison, to be honest.
Does anyone know what color this is? Thanks in advance.
I would call it a flame maple top with a transparent blue burst.
I'm hoping you guys can help out. The 5-strings with narrower spacing, say 17mm and 18mm, does Maruszczyk shave the necks down to match the spacing or do they use a standard neck? I've read some about Sadowsky who offers 18mm spacing but uses a standard neck so the strings are more inward on the neck if going with tighter spacing.
Judge for yourself. This is my Elwood L with 17mm spacing.
Sorry, I can't help....Don't play 5 stringers....
I suggest, as always, dropping a line to Adrian at Public Peace.....
our latest Maruszczyk Demo, what a groove , i love bo's playing... still staggering and i've known Bo for 14 years
"Bo" does some of the greatest bass demo's on YouTube ...... I'd kill a man to be able to groove this hard and have that kind of tone come from my right hand. This young lady clearly doesn't get enough exposure!
Has anyone in the club here owned both the frog and the Sputnik?
I'm really interested to know how they differ in playability, like the top horn position vs single cut horn and their balancing in body weight and neck dive.
I'm planning to order one soon but I cannot decide which model to order!!

I can't remember anyone here saying that they had a Sputnik.....Can anyone with both the sputnik and the frog share you experience?
Before I pull the trigger, I really wanna know which model has better playability, more potential to get extreme lightweight <3.5kg, and their balance!
Very much doubt that anyone has both a Sputnik AND a Frog.....
Aw that's too bad.
From Adrian's official website I see that many of the sputnik reaches 3.5kg range but there is only one frog that is around that range (from their list). I wonder what is it that makes some of the sputnik so light in weight and whether frog plays better on stage or sputnik!
Why not?
I'll soon have an Elwood Europe and a Frog, probably going to settle for a third Maruszczyk in the future, as I'd like to get rid of my Sandberg and go M-exclusive.
I don't really get how the Sputnik could out-weigh the Frog. The single cut design has more wood, which should result in a higher weight, shouldn't it? Hm, I normally don't like single cut basses, but the Sputnik really does appeal to me...
