F-Bass BN-5
F-Bass BN-5, ash body, maple neck/ Madagascar rosewood fingerboard, auburnburst finish, F Bass deluxe bagcase. List $4550. Call for quote.
This is an amazing bass… that yields thick, and clear notes from low “B” throughout the upper registers. Very ’60’s J in sound, response, playability, and vibe. The notes are solid, and resonant… “alive”. They respond excellently with medium tension, and the feel of the upper register is supple, and “meaty.” The bottom register is sure, and true with immediate attack that is balanced, and even.
Slapped, this instrument yields a thick, and excellent sized body of the note which has perfect tonal balance… without midrange “honk”, or harshness, but with plenty of “cohesiveness”. No “roller coaster” frequency response here. Just a solid, articulate, and “traditional” voiced body of the note.
One of the most exceptional fingerstyle/ slap “traditional” style instruments at any price.

This is a new MTD with the wood combination Andrew Gouche has been using for the last couple of years. Great solidity, moderate compression, and punch. Almost neck-thru like, but with better punch, clarity, and articulation. Top end is not shrill, bottom end is solid, and satisfying, middle is very balanced, and even.
