    Orange should do a Thunderbird type bass. Orange amps have a hard rock vibe. That would fit nicely.

    Re. the pickup, today I read an interview on Musicradar about that bass. Orange's Adrian Emsley states that the split coil is 8mm closer to the neck compared to the standard P bass spot, as they found it to be a harmonically richer place, according to them. He says it's modelled after standard P specs, wax potted and possibly wound with Formvar wire

    Awesome demo, Patrick. These basses sounded pretty good. It sounds incredibly punchy. And it sounds phenomenal with effects. I would like to see in other finishes like blue and red. I know they have it in a black finish and it looks real classy. I do see some potential in orange making basses just like peavey. I wish peavey would continue making basses. I’ve always liked their millennium basses.

    a neck-diver. I've had two of these. I like them, but frankly, it's a more expensive than it should be for the quality of materials and components. I swapped out the PU for a quarter pounder and the junky tuning machines were replaced too. I can live with most anything, but this is a serious neck-diving bass. You have to hold it up for an entire gig unless you are seated.

      This is a stupid statement. I own a 1973 Ric, two P-basses, a Jazz bazz, and a Gibson Non-Reverse Thunderbird. The P basses are the easiest playing basses. They also do a better job covering a variety of sounds. I absolutely love my Gibson and I play it monthly but sorry, it is not superior. It is a pain in the ass having the strap pin at the 17th fret sort of like this O bass has. Playing fast lines on the first four frets is a pain in the ass.
