It's one of those things that you either love or hate I found the transition from the fretted to unfretted areas of the neck were just too much of a jarr - it just wasn't for me.

Chris2112 Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I remember having a look at one in Guitar Guitar and thinking it looked a bit naff. Ibanez have always made the best guitars going, but their basses often leave something to be desired. It's a neat idea but certainly not for me, and not for most people I would think, though I do applaud their bravery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakbear Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Having played the one for sale i can say it's much better quality than other Ibanez basses i've played, and apart from the weirdness is really nice. Couldn't get my head around it though! D and G are repeated, which feels very odd to someone used to a regular six... If i won one or something, i may play around with different tunings.... With a bit of practice i'm sure you could pull some fancy stunts, but when i tried i got a headache! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherairsoft Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 It's already mentioned, but mine is for sale at the mo. You'll also find an in-depth review of it with a link in my signature.... It's quite an impressive beast really.very love or hate though, it certainly isn't going to be for everyone.
