Is that a Tony Oppenheim slap part at 8:55?
-
So did they go away from the composite fingerboard and start doing only maple? or is it simply an option?

3:35 look to down to left corner. There's a voodoo doll of someone! I knew the BassWhisperer was evil!

Would you say this bass has a lot of growl to it? I'm looking for a bass that will stand out in a mix of distorted guitars.
would be realy cool if you begin to do some tapping stuff

@123andrelevy - No, it would be a miracle. I don't know how to do that.

Question: how would it compare to a piezo-only bass? I'm currently designing a 4-string fretless with piezo-only, but this system keeps cropping up...

@SpaceVulcan - It's a very different thing. The Lightwave is a lot punchier than most piezos (in my experience), and it's not "quacky" like some piezos. However, I'm not sure if you can buy the electronics for your bass. They used to sell the system separately, but I don't think they do anymore.

The review for this and the fretless version convinced me to get the 2 versions rather than the fretless Le Fay I planned on and still save me $3000. Which is great because I love fretless but also like the fretted tone so it would've hurt to have to chose one over the other. Now I just have to find a good dual bass case.

@WhiteMexicanBassist - Awesome. Check out the Mono case dual gig bag, or Reunion Blues.
