This is the best tone demo i've seen of this bass

Great review!

Received my CAT bass a few weeks back and can’t stop playing it.

I have flats on mine and it cooks. 👍🏼

[JLeppert]

My back has loved the switch to shortscale

Finally! The classic Bass Whisperer TV is back! \m/ :-D

One of the best sounding vids on this bass. Thank you

[umTeacher]

Omg can't tell how much I missed your videos and reviews, Ed!
This made my day! Nice to see you again!

[samatza]

Good to see you looking well Ed. Nice bass and a novel way of dialling in so many useful tones. Thanks for sharing, stay well.

Good job, Ed. I just ordered one of these. After watching this video, I'm sure I did the right thing. Thanks.

I'm looking forward to hearing this bass with flats.
I keep looking for a short scale that sounds so nice bands won't keep asking me to put in down and play the P bass instead haha.

Really digging this! Happy to see the retro/quirky basses being rediscovered and remade! Sounds great!!!!

[trevorblair]

Always enjoy your Motown grooves. 🙏🏿👍🏾

[billslamp]

Always love your reviews. Some cool tone from the Cat Bass.

I love your work with The Mavericks, your playing and your musicianship are excellent additions to the band! With all of the different "voices" the cat bass has, is there one that would be your choice if you were playing it with The Mavericks?

[mauriliomina]

Ed, great review, thank you! (a little suggestion, explore the nuances of playing right over the neck pickup... incredible amount of great sounds!)

[browe]

Your vids on the Nordy Acinonyx... I've never been interested in shortys, but this one just does something for me that other trendy short scale (or even trad J or P basses) never, ever have. ♥️

[Belman]

I'm quite surprised at how good it sounds. Really nice.

The "series" mode kills ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Been so long since the last time I've heard a Phil Jones amp.

The headstock tuner layout is good but they missed an golden opportunity to remedy one of the shortcomings of the Fender headstock. They should have moved the E string tuner post farther away from the nut. With Hipshot Ultralights and plenty of room available on the left side of the headstock, it's a no brainer to move the E tuner farther away from the nut. They did a good job locating the G string tuner post well away from the nut. All you need are E and G tuner post distances similar to a Spector 4 or a mid grade Soundgear 4.
The name of the bass is interesting, but it's not helping the cause. Some folks aren't even going to bother trying to pronounce that. In some places, we're still struggling with the word "Precision". Best to go with a name that's easier to chew. Especially since you're building in quantity overseas and need to sell some of these things.

I think Abraham Laboriel played a Goya bass on New Frontiers
