NBD, sort of

In 2005, I moved to Switzerland from USA. I brought a 5-string fretless, which I did not play for the next 16 years. I left two basses in storage in my house in USA. I just returned from a family visit and brought back my Pedulla Rapture RB5. It still had 20-year-old roundwound strings, which still too zingy for my taste. I restrung with my usual TI Jazz Flats, tweaked the setup and this plays itself. I had forgotten what a nice bass this is.

Two years ago, I brought my Pedulla ET-6 back from USA. I left the 20-year-old TI Flats on it, since it sounded so good. All three of my basses have TI Flats.

Hear is a photo of the Pedull pair.

Very cool! I did have the opportunity to play a new Rapture that was for sale in Edmonton AB, of all places, probably back in 2000 or so when I was there doing a summer student project in school (Mother's Music I think). It was a super cool and comfortable bass to play.

I really dig that ET-6 too. It's a great looking six!

Rounds wouldn’t sound good even after 1000 years in storage lol.

Beautiful pair! I lusted after a Zebrawood ET5 for years.

The Rapture is so comfortable. The ET-6 is also fine, however the 6th string makes it more difficult than the Rapture.
