    Warmoth Deluxe JB5 SpecialPublished on 02/28/08 at 01:55
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Made in the USA. 22 boxes, microwave and electronic active Bartolini 2-band-like Music Man. Bridge Gotoh robust Schaller Dtuner lite with the string of Si level settings were volume, treble, bass and a splitter switch for the microphone single coil. Flamed maple neck with ebony fingerboard. Brass nut.
    edit 28/02/08: the bridge was changed to a Badass V is a killing, more sustain and better hold the tuning. It's simple, I no longer need to give me since I put it ...

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is wide enough, Fenderien type, but very nice. Access to treble is fairly easy. The balance is good but it is a bit heavy (and I'm not a chip!). The sound is very good, typed musicman all need …

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is wide enough, Fenderien type, but very nice. Access to treble is fairly easy. The balance is good but it is a bit heavy (and I'm not a chip!). The sound is very good, typed musicman all need that little extra with all the microphones brought by Bartolini.

    SOUNDS

    I use it primarily for the metal (it is perfect for this) and the ball (go 5 hours with a dead donkey on his shoulders and you'll say new!). Dtuner the switches to drop A!! I plugged into an Ampeg SVT head connected to two 3Pro Ashdown ABM210 and 115. The sound is good to go and I can play almost anything with this bass and this amp even though it's more oriented big sound (seems less a blues roots played on this bass!).
    edit 28/02/08: I now spend a combo Ashdown ABM500 Evoia C210T and good sound is still there.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have a few months. I love the sound and finish are perfect. A drop even in the bass string does not become a piece of chewing gum. The weight is quite big and I would not recommend anyone with back problems and would weigh only 50kg!
    edit 28/02/08: I loaned a buddy, not very big and not very Costeau, but fan of Fender basses, e he had no problems with weight. This is apparently the same weight as a 5-string Fender.
