Pedulla Fretless Thunderbolt 5 with newly refinished fingerboard
On consignment: 1993 Pedulla Fretless Thunderbolt 5 in extremely nice condition.
The owner had Mike Pedulla refinish the fingerboard with his special gloss polyester coating in June, 2018, and Mike signed the back of the headstock at that time as well. The bass has not been played since then, so the fingerboard looks like new!
It's a maple body with a beautiful transparent teal finish, and the bass weighs just under 9 lbs.
Cosmetically, the bass is in great shape. There are a few very tiny (pinhead size) dings here and there, but nothing noticeable from more than a couple feet away. On the back, there is extensive "worming", i.e. random light squiggly indentation lines from a belt buckle on the cavity cover, on the treble side hip adjacent to the cover, and on the bass side hip as well. These lines are only visible when holding the bass (or camera) at just the right angle to the light. That is why you can see the lines in some photos but not others. If this is a concern for you, please reach out and I can send you a link to download many more detailed photos. I cannot add any more photos into this listing.
The action is nice and low, and it plays beautifully when I tested it for just a few seconds.
Bass will ship in the original Pedulla rectangular hardshell case, and includes the setup tools, a fresh set of Pedulla PN5 strings, and a Pedulla leather strap with straplock hardware.
Free shipping to Continental USA. Local pickup is also welcome.
