Small update for Porthos... Pickups were changed to dual coils wired for series, SC and parallel through a 4pdt. Also some changes on the fretboard... How exciting!
woah fill us in! what did you do to the fretboard ?

miziomix, I see you have an option that you call Infinity P-UP. I think that's a wonderful option to build in a bass. Can you post pics of that?![]()
how do you find the difference ?
Whoa. When I first heard of this guy, it was just a pretty cool variation on the jazz. And now I'm totally blown away. Considering that I live a few hours drive away, maybe I should consider placing an order... one day.
I don't know when I'll be in KL again, but I could probably drop you a message if I do head over!Thanks! yeah... those were the times! LOL! Since we are neighbours, drop by sometimes for a drive test![]()
That's awesome !!! You can either go with J-pup's or switch to soapbars. Me likey![]()
Sure. Thanks.I don't know when I'll be in KL again, but I could probably drop you a message if I do head over!
Hi Guys, as promised, here's the video of Maurizio and Porthos
Been pretty quiet around here lately, so...
Just came back from KL. Met up with Maurizio. Put some deposit down for my second MUB. All I want to say now is that it will be an Airborne 5.
Follow MUB facebook for details when it comes out
Hopefully the review for my first MUB will be out by late February (video by bassFREQ). Initial thoughts for now:
- thick huge fat tone, clear lows, growly mids, clear highs;
- overall: in your face kind of tone

Peace,

Which bass is that in the picture?
Well guys, I'm in! I entered and won the most recent faceBook contest for a Standard Über-Jay 4 string. Of course I'll need more, so...
I just sent Maurizio my wish list for upgrades and we're on our way.
I'm really excited to have my first custom, built to my own specs by one of the finest builders around. I love the key-less headstock and Buckeye Burl Maurizio gets. Can't wait. I'll post updates as I receive them... project will be The Über-Jay Hawk!
