i wonder what the sunbusrt one would look like with that pearloid pick guard...too bad the blue one is a pj!
Well, pickgaurds are only 45 bucks....
I think the Tort will look better, but I want a black JJ 5 string to put a tort pickgaurd on....
Hell, a single pickup black 5 and put a tort on it..... yum

Here is my 97 Penta-Buzz.
It was originally Blue-Green burst but it was badly damaged when it was knocked off a stand at a show so I sent it back to Michael for a new look.
Now it's finished in Trans-Rose and it's gorgeous!
This is one bass I will never sell. In fact I'm still looking for a Peacock Blue or Emerald Green MVP with 17mm spacing to give me a matched pair.
It has the best overall fretless tone I have ever heard. I am always amazed when I hear recordings of this bass. They just don't get any better.......

gorgeous buzz spencer! welcome to the club. you're #29!
I'm still loving the well worn black MVP you used to own...I had mr. pedulla put in the updated electronics and it sounds amazing...if i ever inherit some money i may go for a refinish.
i'm actually john...but i did get the bass in a trade from mike, so your memory isn't all bad
in any event, the finishes all look so good i'd have a hard time choosing. i think my favorites are arctic night and light gold, and vintage cherry burst...although i doubt mine has flame male since it was a solid color...so i'm a little scared it will look boring.

You could always send it up to Pat Wilkins, and be the only guy on the block with a...Lake Placid Blue or (insert other random color) Pedulla.
i don't think i could bring myself to get it refinished somewhere else when the pedulla shop is only 20 minutes from me!

Ha, sorry about that John, I though I was speaking with Mike Burd, it's previous owner and the TB'er I had sold it to.
It feels faster, but it could be my imagination. I am plugging it in tonight to see what it is all about....
Hey all,
I hope this finds everyone well, enjoying your Pedullas like I enjoy mine! I have a quick question though. Do any of you own both a Thunderbass & a Thunderbolt? (Preferably in the same wood configuration). I've been thinking about this alot recently, and I realize that all of my favorite basses to play over the years have been bolt-ons, not neck-throughs. My thunderbass sounds incredible everytime I play it, but I was wondering how the thunderbolt compared to it. If you have both of them, what do you think?
I'd love to have this one:
