Hubberjub...that's sweet.
you may have covered this ground before....but what's the story on that guitar? Modulus only advertises basses. How rare is this? Where did you get your hands on this? Where do those DiMarzios fall in the p'up spectrum...you call 'em P90's, but they have double poles? What's the body? Balance issues? Why does the neck look hybrid? Care to send it to me for a 6 month "sabbatical" of sorts. I PROMISE I'll be good to her. 3 strings is fine for me. I'll take care of the other 3...

Modulus only makes basses now so they're pretty rare. I bought this on Ebay about three years ago. The Dimarzios are humbuckers that have been designed to sound like P-90s. To me, they sound more like humbuckers with a little more snarl. The body is mahogany. The neck is built around a carbon fiber frame. There is a thin black layer visible on the sides under the fretboard and also on the back of the headstock (that's the second picture). Because the carbon fiber supports the string tension, they can use woods that wouldn't typically be able to deal with the pressure. The neck on this guitar is made from a variety of cedar. It's a really resonant guitar.

Well, I broke a string while in the middle of a solo and decided to get a little crazy. I started ripping the rest of the strings off the guitar for the remainder of the solo and just grabbed my other guitar in between songs. That was the last gig I played six string on and I haven't had the chance to restring it yet. That's the problem with owning too many guitars, it's way easier to just grab another instead of changing strings immediately.
