It DOES have black pearloid blocks on a maple Jazz neck....

It's 21 frets...


Looks like a "hot-rodded" American Deluxe P-Bass.

I wonder if the Dominator uses an active/passive circuit, though.

Not sure if the dominator bass exists in a 5-string version.

It looks like it has some kind of new strap locks. Kind of looks like a spring or something. Looks like a spring lock so you don't put anything on the strap. Just stick it over the button and it latches over the strap. A flip top?

I wish we had more info. The strap locks are apparently new. They probably have, or have plans for a five string.

The one I saw was a 5-string active, but I believe they are also available in 4-string.... At that price, it doesn't matter to me. :mrgreen:

I saw this thing on a body of a bass where this little metal input case is kind of recessed into the body. You put the jack plug into the input and it goes a little farther in than usual. Then there is this little knob/lever that sticks up thru the body on the front and you push it down and it locks the jack end in place in the guitar. You can pick the guitar up by the cord and hold it in the air and the cord/jack will not come out of the body!!!!! Fender needs to put that on some basses! Maybe on the new Dominator Bass. I could sure use that. I can't tell you how many times I step on my cord and it wants to come out of the input. With this cord lock thing I wouldn't worry at all . It looks like if I step on the cord it would break the cable before the plug would pull out. SWEEEE--- ott!!!!!!!!

I almost pulled the head off an SVT with my cord (leash!) and that wasn't locked in either. It just went through the neck strap and out behind me. If I had been directly in front of it, it would have just yanked the cord out of the amp.... And those SVT heads are heavy. :mrgreen:


one night i teared a ac30 from a stool, i lift it back and continued to play...
i must admit that i first guessed it broken but this one was a real hard-taking tank. :wink:

The singular form is 3-letters and the plural form is 5-letters, so it's safe for you to use! :D


i see, every time i write $@! or #$@*&!% (non four-letter words!) brad is ought to interact... :mrgreen:

LOWHZBLOW-- For a long time( since I was a kid) I've seen pictures of Switzerland in movies etc. It looks like a beautifull place. Mountains, the Olympics etc-- it has a special kind of thing to it. I don't know a whole lot about it. I'm friends with Iceland on FB. Maybe I should hook up with Switzerland. Do you like it over there? Have you ever been to the USA?
