![]() With Mike now retiring, there won't be any new Pedullas born into the world. There had been some discussion as to whether Mike might let Bill Bartolini market them after Mike retired, but it never materialised, so that is another thing that is special and unique to these basses. The pickups are a special set that were made for Pedulla basses. Deep and rich, great for the Jaco sound if you solo the bridge, the P pickup sounds really fat and rich on it's own and the pair in combo is fantastic - I generally run it with both pickups on equal, it sounds great. The playability and tone are superb, as you'd expect from someone as renowned as Mike Pedulla. It has some player marks there is a chip on the side of the body, a patch on the back that wore through and was refinished by a previous owner and the lacquer on the side of the fretboard is chipped a little around the 12-15th frets on the low B side of the fretboard - pics included. Overall, the bass is in great condition for something built in 1989. I'm selling as it just doesn't get enough play time as I use my Warwick Thumb for 95% of everything I do now and I want some new toys, it's a shame to leave this sitting it's case, so it's time to move it on. Built by the now-retired Mike Pedulla, this is an absolute corker of an instrument.
