Two-Fisted Punching Machines - the Double P topic

No, they upped the price in yen too. It’s now almost 180,000.

The Yen is still at one of the weakest spots it has been ever.

I agree. It’s the best sounding P bass I’ve ever heard.

The quality is there.
The sound is there.
The price… has lept out of my range.

Never saw this pickup set up as being as useful as having a single coil pickup in the bridge position to blend with the split coil or having dual humbuckers that could be set to serial or parallel and also be able to split each pickup like a K mod on a G&L.

The FGN is interesting in that the bridge pickup is far enough forward to seemingly be effective but then it also seems for force the neck pickup forward of it’s traditional “sweet spot” or am I wrong on that?

Thank you.

It has an onboard headphone amp and tuner.

I’m currently working on an updated version that uses bluetooth.

It won’t be for a while but I think a Fujigen Mighty Power will be my first bass upgrade. Such a cool looking bass and I know it’s gonna be carefully made if it’s coming from Japan.

It’s a guitar but this just seems silly enough to toss in this topic.

This is the one that got away for me. I really should have picked this one up. I may eventually get them to make me one with Fralin double P pickups…
