What's up with the plate on that thing? Nino never ceases to surprise the heck out of me. Five knobs in a standard stock plate? I can't stand machining metal, please tell me that's readily available from a parts manufacturer...

Here a few pics from last night w/Dead By Choice. I have my Valenti J5 and an SR5 I received on a trade with coleho. Went to his house, picked it up and went to a gig!!!!!
Nino... I've got #10 coming over to me, now I get to see what all this raving's about. 
FWIW I chose this over a Bob Glaub....

You chose wisely IMO. Don't get me wrong, BG's are nice but Nino seals all his basses wit a little sugar.
That is the only lake placid blue I have ever liked.
I took pictures of a couple of basses and my cat had to step in and hog the spotlight.
So, did anyone get any new Valentis here lately? If not I'll post a pic of mine. I know you all have seen it but here it is again, being forced upon you all to look at.
That's a great looking bass with really nice specs. Definietly in my top 3 Valentis.

Dang neck is sick, ain't it!?! Trans blue ash, emg's, you're a very bad man!
Yeah, I needed a modern sounding bass for gospel and this bass gives it to me. Perfect job on this one. The EMG's mixed with the OBP-3 give this bass all the thump I need. It's a monster, especially in church when I tend to a lot of thumping. Then I turn around and play in 3 different bands and with a little tweak of the preamp, I can dial in pretty much any tone I need.

Looks like it's #25. It was originally sold to Mark Knell but I'm sure it's changed hands at least once since the guy who's selling it is named Andylaw8. I don't know who that guy is on here.

I notice the original thread says these were Fatstack pick ups but the Ad says big singles...Anyone know which is right I am assuming they are the original fatstacks and someone has just gone by a pic or has someone here swapped them out?
