Clarky Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 Not for me but interesting and you certainly don't see many of these [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Steinberger-Spirit-XZ-25-Fretless-5-String-Bass-Honey-/160537722620?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item2560cb3efc#ht_600wt_1141"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Steinberger-Spirit-X...c#ht_600wt_1141[/url] Quote
TheGreek Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 (edited) Yeah..I've got the 4 string version of this.."powered" by EMG Select p/ups..same output as if it's not plugged in...I think they used to use these in the Hohner "cricket bats" in the 80s IIRC..I had one, didn't realise how s**t they were till I plugged in my Westone Thunder 1A again after a year of using the Hohner..needless to say it didn't get used much after that!! At over a £100 it seems expensive for firewood - but then again they are predicting snow again.. Edited January 29, 2011 by TheGreek Quote
Clarky Posted January 29, 2011 Author Posted January 29, 2011 Blimey, I sort of assumed that Steinberger were quite exclusive, rather than kindling!!!! Quote

TheGreek Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 You've confused "Steinberger" for "Steinberger Spirit" - made in Japan I believe - sort of "entry" version. The Steinberger equivalent of Warwick Rockbass... I may be wrong but if so I invite offers for my 4 string.. Quote

Speaking of which, I'd take it off your hands for a tenner, quite like mine & it'd be nice to have a spare! Jon. Quote
