Whats the deal with Modulus?

[TonyP-]

I played a GVJ4 when i was in NYC a couple weeks ago and now I'm DYING for one!
Anybody got 2 grand i can borrow for a bit?

Dude...
I just sold one for $900

Don't get me wrong I loved it...I just needed the money for something else.

I will be all over it if it's less expensive

Is that the one you picked up off of TB? The one that Flea actually used? Nice!

Did anyone happen to see that Q4 go on eBay today for $610? I would have bought it but if I have any more boxes coming to my house I will surely be sleeping outside.

Nope, I ended up passing.
I got mine brand new from Tony @ Planet Bass (my Modulus guy!). If you look on their website you can still see it listed.
It's the dark velvet cherry over flamed maple with the J+MM setup and white pickguard.

Sounds ridiculously amazing!

Now only if they'd make me an FB5 with 19mm spacing like on the FB4...

Isn't that an option now, or is Modulus only offering that on the Q Basses?

I've only heard/seen it on the Quantums at the moment.

I saw that last week when looking for my Flea.

It's pretty ridiculous.
And by ridiculous I mean utterly bad@ss!

does look sick

We need to start a PM madness where if someone has a ridiculous deal on a Mod then we know about it first.

Shoot it over to the Mob thread!
Probably has the most subscriptions.

I've owned a Q5, and I agree. It was the most versatile bass I've ever owned or played. To this day I wish I never sold it. Now I look at them and think I'll never be able to afford another.

Agreed. I owned a Burnt Sienna Q5 with preamp and Bartolini's and it was truly the best sounding bass I've ever owned. I sold mine because I joined a group were I needed the vintage tones and couldn't afford to hold onto it. I sure miss that bass.

+ 1 very good idea

Needless to say, the FB4 was crushing last night at practice.

The ability to switch from J to MM and anywhere inbetween is ridiculously awesome for my cover band.

Plus through the new Mesa Titan, I easily overwhelmed the rehearsal space... hehehehe...
