Yes, Patrick. Mayones is an instrument.

Legit one of the most beautiful basses I've seen coupled with easily the best intonation for a fretless bassist. Great vid.

lol that portrait of Tracy nod at the beginning tho

[RudyVally]

The bass is awesome. Love to look and the tone. Nothing like playing a bass that has a hell of a sound, and look Damn good as well.

[AaronKoskelainenBass]

[joelx]

[alphaskin]

everything is awesome: the bass, the sound, the player :D

[Tooltrocity]

I've always wanted to know how this bass sounded. It looks like such a work of art but there are no demos of it until now.

Oh man, I got a "Marcus Miller - Portrait Of Tracy" feeling at the beginning and got me all excited ~

[lincolnadams]

Sounds fantastic! How was this recorded?

[pecavallo]

I was expecting a little more versatility with so many controls, piezo, etc..  but it is a gorgeous bass nonetheless.

[sungyulkim]

How do you pronounce this? "May/Ones"? or "Ma/Yo/Nes"?

[fabibass]

bass is not my taste at all but the playing is great...

[feedingfiction]

I'm confused. Why is there a coil tap push/pull if there's only one coil?

[RandyLott]

Ah, it's not in tune! Could have been so good!
