The pictures don't even begin to do it justice; but they're a starting point. :-) tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 685 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Friday, March 28, 2008 - 8:46 pm:    You must be a happy camper! What's the initial report on the signature + bass/treble control setup? Worth the cost when compared to the Signature setup in that lovely triple O?

Congratulations. briant Intermediate Member Username: briant Post Number: 156 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Saturday, March 29, 2008 - 10:11 am:    Initial report on the electronics: SO glad I opted to do that. I'll need to do a full "How Much I Love This Instrument" report sometime tomorrow - I'm doing my first gig with it this evening so we'll get 3+ hours of quality time together. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6392 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 8:46 am:    With its combination of electronics, body style, and woods, this is a great bass! briant Intermediate Member Username: briant Post Number: 159 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 2:19 pm:    I played my first gig with it last night. It is amazing and exceeded my expectations. I can't express how wonderful this instrument really is. So I'm not even going to make a feeble attempt to do so. The two things that I'm so extremely glad that I did that I almost didn't do: 1. Adding the master bass and treble controls. The options that they add to the tonal palette are just wonderful. 2. The ebony neck stripe. The amount of low fundamental and sustain this thing has is another notch above the JPJ. briant Intermediate Member Username: briant Post Number: 160 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 4:56 pm:    Here is a link to a page with sound clips of the bass. http://www.briantimpe.com/page/Rogue5.htm 3rd_ray New Username: 3rd_ray Post Number: 8 Registered: 2-2008 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 6:03 pm:    I love the sound with the Sansamp, very cool JE sound. I've been a Chris Squire fan since the 70's. In case you haven't heard yet, Yes is touring this year. Here's their tour dates... http://www.yesworld.com/ywtour.html davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 6396 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 6:11 pm:    So, is Siberian Khatru on your band's setlist? briant Intermediate Member Username: briant Post Number: 162 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 8:48 pm:    "So, is Siberian Khatru on your band's setlist?" Nope. Just one of the many many random songs that I know for no particular reason. That just popped into my head when I was trying to think of stuff to demo this bass with. mario_farufyno Intermediate Member Username: mario_farufyno Post Number: 133 Registered: 9-2008 Posted on Tuesday, June 30, 2009 - 5:21 pm:    What is the eletronics configuration? tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 1049 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Tuesday, June 30, 2009 - 6:15 pm:    I'm pretty sure it's signature + LEDs + bass and treble knobs. briant Advanced Member Username: briant Post Number: 350 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Sunday, July 12, 2009 - 12:59 pm:    Sorry for not seeing this earlier. The above is correct. Click for diagram of the layout. The only thing that changed from the last labeled one from Mica is the LED on/off got moved down to the bottom.
