F BASS ENTERS THE VINTAGE 5 STRING BASS MARKET WITH THE VF-5

F Bass will debut their version of a vintage 5 string bass, that captures the vibe, feel and accurate tone reproduction of the classic ‘60s and ‘70s basses, but with the modern advantages of easy access to the higher frets, onboard preamp and a solid low B string; made for those players who prefer a more traditional sound and feel, as opposed to the more modern standard F Bass line of instruments.

The basses feature a 34 inch scale length, a choice of maple or rosewood fretboards, alder or ash bodies.

The rosewood chosen for the fretboard is Madagascar Rosewood, a very close substitute for the rare Brazilian Rosewood, with a very similar cellular structure, grain colouration and “ping tone”.

VF-5 base price $3,750.00

Standard features: maple fretboard with black center face dots

Body: ash or alder

Finishes: natural, sunburst, black

Chrome hardware

Vintage bent-plate bridge or Badass Bridge

Custom wound pickups

Pickguards: tortoiseshell, white or black

Hard case or gig bag included

Additional Options

Madagascar Rosewood fretboard with pearl center dots: $350.00

Trans white finish $350.00

Neck binding: $400.00

Block inlays on the fretboard in Pearl or Black Ebony $1,100.00

Displaying at NAMM in Booth # 1458, Hall E.

Mouaif.... esthétiquement je trouve ça franchement bof une F avec une plaque... et la version façon M² encore pire...

D'accord avec Nivek,

Vraiment pas réussi le mariage JazzBass/F-Bass !!

Justement la FBass, avait sa propre perso. au départ....et du coup, je ne vois pas trop

en quoi ça va faire de l'ombre à sadowsky :mellow: ????

En faite il surf sur la tendance....

Trop de boutons, comme le dit Sven :wacko:. Mais à part ça, je les trouve plutôt réussies

Et puis vu les tarif, ça doit sonner

Je ne suis pas fan à l'origine des modèles "normaux", mais là je n'aime vraiment pas le côté Jb pas réussi du tout.

Cependant je trouve la blanche superbe et classieuse. Mais tous ces boutons me filent mal au crâne d'avance.

Vais prendre un doliprane moi <_<

ben t'as quand même 5 potards sur ta lackland. y'a juste une tonalité en plus sur la F.
