    How the heck the B string sounds that huge and tight being a 32" 😮 is amazing. Is one of the biggest ferocious B string sound I've ever listen to.

    Yes, I just had to put a string retainer bar on a short-scale bass after having odd buzzing at the nut on the open A-string, it wasn’t the nut, it was the string angle being awful. Plus I felt the disc retainer on the D and G was too far away from the nut to be useful. The bar solved all the problems.

      I'm friends with Bruno, visited his workshop in Tuscany last October and even got to do a little Luthiery there. He is one of the most passionate and knowledgeable guys you'll ever find about instrument making. I've also played this model of Bass there, and the Amrita Bass. As a Bassist - both are wonderful to play.

    • @basstheworldofficial
      @basstheworldofficial  21 день тому +4

      Not anymore. Many boutique brands do this. You don’t really see affordable basses in this configuration because the strength of the b string tends to be a bit of a gamble with 32”

      I've been playing bass 37ish years now? Just bought a Dingwall. That bass has brought to my attention technique flaws I never knew I had. My muting is apparently ASS. This bass makes weird noises if I look at it from across the room.
      So yes, you are correct. AND, sometimes it takes those high end basses to even hear your most subtle of mistakes.

    • @bassyey
      @bassyey 21 день тому

      Bro? A $1000 bass is decently priced though. In fact I'll argue a bass $600-$2000 is all you need. Avoid anything cheaper than this. If you buy from these price range, it's already good enough.

    • @CoolGuyAtlas

    Sounds like every other PJ with Nordstrand pickups. The electronics are the entirety of the sound in an electric instrument.
    If someone wants to blow a bunch of money of this, cool. I don't see a reason to pay a premium for painted wood with a stick of figured wood stuck on it.
    The freedom kilos bit is getting tired.

    It is ugly and it doesn't sound better than a good PJ precision or some other PJ bass with active electronics. Foderas and most of boutiqe basses are for rich snobs.
