That is really odd! That really looks like a Pau Ferro fretboard, but I thought all TL-Fives had ebony boards.

All Ebony Stuart. Probably the stage lighting that's on it. That FB actually has a very dark color to it.
Got this from a friend who used to work at Peavey. This was taken at the loading dock for the Shipping Dept at Plant 3. There's not a bass in the pic but I thought there would be some interest.

I want to plug all of that in to one instrument. And make epic sounds. Maybe my BEAD-tuned Patriot 
I recently found an old dyna unity for parts really cheap on here. It's neck had several maladies keeping it from being ever fully repaired. They're great looking basses though so I decided I could give it a purpose 
How I got it:
And how it now stands:

Mine has a beefchunck of a neck profile. I've heard the necks varied over time, well, I got a cross between a p and a warwickstill an incredible bass and tone to die for but...necks just not my thing.
So,
Anyone on here maybe interested in a swap for their thinner-necked Cirrus? Mines a purrrdy walnut in 100% mint condition.
I'm hopin someone on here would prefer more Pbass style necks and swap...
I'd consider a five - the profile is different
Hey guys, here is a scratch track I did on my first gen TL-Five the other day for a producer friend of mine. Straight in to the desk, with minimal EQ. I have a slight bit of compression but not much. One of the things I've always enjoyed about my TL is they seem to have a natural compression going on (for me anyhow) This song is going to get a different bass track put down for it, when I get around to it, but I thought you guys might enjoy a very raw clip.

Wait, how does this song start again??
Awesome!!! Some very tasty tones right there!!
For sure Mark. Easy tone to get too, just plug and play for the most part! Some slight EQ adjustments and I was there.

Switch is in active mode and bass EQ was flat. I think I did a slight dip at 1k and then a slight boost in the lows and slight boost in the highs. I'll check the EQ points tonight when I get home.

Haha, man that thing is totally crazy! Peavey really pulled out the stops to make that one, it must be a tone monster.
Beautiful instrument, 'grats.
