I picked up this Chaos yesterday....I wanted a 5 string and love the sound of the Pheonix. I thought I would share a pic. Say what is the difference between the Pheonix and Chaos anyway? Seems to be a weight difference but noticed nothing else.

That looks like 2 phoenixes to me. Or a Torrent or something. Definitely not a chaos. Or is it a Kore?

Thats the old style discontinued Chaos, not the current model, confusing, no?

It has a different body wood to the Phoenix, and no flame inlays.

The Kore is neck through.

Thanks for the info. Any idea what the wood is? I see a Phoenix is basswood (per Traben site). I want to weigh them to see what the difference is...seems like a few lbs.

Sorry to hijack thread. I am done. :bassist:

Dude, you're not hijacking, this is exactly what we're here for!:)

I have no definite answer, but I'd say I'd not be far from the mark, if I said mahoagany, as the old Chaos was basically a bolt-on version of the Kore, which is mahoagany, and very very heavy.

Delightful thread with lots of great pics. Got a traben array attack 4 on its way to me. The pic with the 5 skull knobs makes me want to add those to mine when it arrives instead of the speed knobs was gonna add. Lol. Should have mine in my paws thursday or friday.

My Traben Array Attack arrived. Did need truss rod adjusment, had start of backbow. Neck bolts also needed tightening. Everything else was fine. Lowered bridge pup a tiny bit for personal tone taste for ti combined with neck pup. Lovely bass sound wise. Lets me get that rickenbackerish with balls sound, to nice mellow deep bass sound. Perfect match with my Ibanez Sr300. The latter does perfect to me electronica bass sound with processor. The Traben gives more the rage on, type sound that wanted for alternate. LOL. Pretty bass too. Snarfle vampyrebunny aproves.
