Now eagerly awaiting my Tribal Sun 5-string fretless!!! :hyper::hyper::hyper: Check should arrive in MontanaMike's hands early this week.

Not satisfied with my setup on my Chaos Obsession 5 but I'm going to retry first with some better measurement tools this time. Also worrying about a fairly dead preamp in the bass. There's not much difference between having the switch in preamp or passive positions and I replaced the battery with a fresh one to make sure it wan't a battery issue.

Did you get the email about shipping for setup? I will let you know as soon as I get everything.

Not the best pictures, but finally got pics of my Array Attack 4. Number pleeese!

Sorry, they were taken with an Iphone, so they aren't the best quality.

That's interesting. Looks like Traben will be a thing of the past soon. Might help with BC Rich's overall rep, doing something with Traben's technology.

Or they could turn the entire product into a cookie-cutter toy for wanna-be kids, turn the quality to crap, make it really pointy, and put a 199.99 price tag on it on a shelf in Guitar Center...

(Sorry, not a B.C. Rich Fan. Takes the idea of looking heavy and mean and produces crap quality. Never works when a company buys technology that they didn't come up with on their own. TRUST me...)

Traben for life! :hyper:

Thanks Darkstrike! Been trying to get these up for a while! to make it that much more sweet... only paid $65.00 dollars for it after trading in my Ep. Les Paul... the shop owner didn't know about the bass or what it was worth lol. He bought it off another closed shops inventory! Got lucky! Well worth every sent, I would have paid the full 450.00 it's going for! (If I had ever found one that is...). Thanks though!

Has anyone had any contact with a Traben rep to see what is up with this whole BC Rich thing? Just curious if anyone has a connection to see if Traben is gonna disappear. If so I need to start saving some cash and get and old Kore or Phoenix or something.

Not because I am a BCR fan ..... but BCR were innovators back in the day, now they are owned by a non-Rico family company (Hanser Music Group), which also owns Kustom Amps, Michael Kelly Guitars, ..... and Traben.

By the way, I've not been a Hanser BCR fan much until recently, but this Moyer Traben to BCR move is a Hanser head scratcher to me. I don't expect Gibson to start sticking Epi or Gibbo logos on Kramer or Tobias styles, or a Fender name on the headstock of a Jackson Warrior.
