Well spotted! Unfortunately I haven't spent so much time playing around with it since I got it - it's very cool, though!

yeah man my buddy bought a few and they are sooooooooo fun!

Nice gear! Constructive thought: a swiffer duster would be best friends with your moog!

Ha, yes! Unfortunately I haven't been gigging with my Moog much recently and it's getting dusty!

Cool setup, I def want a Prodigy one day. I take my synths outside to dust them, I use a painters brush.

Yeah, we use brushes to clean our mixing desks in work. I've just been very neglectful of the Prodigy of late! The Prodigy is a great little synth, lots of cool Moog sounds for not a lot of money (although they are going up in price).

Nice! I recently picked up a Squier Bass VI myself (Sunburst) and absolutely love it. I find it very hard to put down and it sounds amazing through my black finger. Did you end up replacing the bridge or strings? I need a thicker guage as they rattle/buzz and dont have enough tension on the bridge.
I kept the bridge stock but I messed around with string gauges. I tried a .105 on the low E which sounded good but was obviously much higher tension than the other strings. Eventually I ordered a set of LaBella Flatwounds and now the VI plays and sounds like it should - it's really nice. I recommend those strings to anyone with a VI!
Also - out of the box the setup was pretty terrible. With a few tweaks of the truss rod and some bridge adjustment I got it to where I wanted it to be.
the set up of mine was pretty decent until i noticed many of the strings were at different heights. then i got out the allen key to adjust them to where they were comfortable and then that of course caused different tensions.
I have heard of the LaBella sets and will have to order some. I really like the round wounds on it as I already have a 70s Jazz with flatwounds.
