V3 5 TS 2nd Gen : Great sound, great feel and great looks!

5 years ago

An amazing bass that sounds incredible, looks beautiful and feels smooth as butter!

I use this at home currently, but I hope to use it for gigs in the future. As a previous 4-string player, I can assure you that there is no need to worry about if you will be able to play a 5-string. I found that I adjusted very quickly. The rolled fretboard edges help with this, as they allow your fretting hands much better access to the entire fretboard. The string spacing is a perfect balance between being easy to move across different strings, but not so close that you get caught up fretting the wrong string. The lacquered finish on the headstock looks great but isn't present on the neck which makes sliding your hand around very easy.

The Heritage 3 preamp combined with the Revolution pickups sound amazing and the preamp gives you a huge amount of tonal versatility. The active-passive switch is really handy, as you can still play without batteries if you want/need to.

The sunburst finish is beautiful and paired with the chrome hardware this bass is truly stunning. I cannot say enough good things about this bass! BUY IT!
