It would be nice if we could hear what this bass actually sounds like.  The only video you have is a heavily produced & distorted tone.  I'd be happy to do a review of the natural unadulterated sound of this bass if you want to send me one to try out!

Carl N.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Just curious what the weight is for this updated model. I have the discontinued rosewood version and was curious if this weighed less or more. Thanks!

Carl N.

This would be around 9.5lbs though individual instruments will vary

John N.

How could it possibly weigh more?  I call my original version the BEAST because of it's size and weight.  Still I love it.

Seems a bit expensive for an import. 

John N.

Imagine if they made it in Japan.  It would be an even more expensive import.

Hey so classic question for me, do I need special pickups if I want to swap them out? I have two of these and I may even consider a third. This and the OLD F405 are the best basses that exist for metal! Thanks 

Carl N.

No, any pickup would be fine

Hi. I am a proud owner or this awesome bass since two weeks, i know you use d'addario XL strings. But can you give me the exact references? . Because strings long enough for this beast are not easy to find. Thanks. 

Carl N.

Yes, string gauges are located in the specifications for this model.

D'Addario XL (.045/.065/.085/.105/.125)
