New NS Design bass guitar

[BassBus]

This looks rather tasty, if you like headless basses that is. I'm a long time fan of Ned Steinberger's designs so this would be a worthy addition. Better start saving now. Might take a while.

I'm not usually much of a fan of headless basses, but that does look rather nice...

that's brilliant, seemed a great guy- I loved his last line in that!
Interesting evolution on his Spector NS (WW streamer) design in terms of body shape.

0:23 - his face when he realised he'd done something wrong. Later the camera was off he was hauled out the back and shot- "it's a trade show damn it, you slap, thats the contract, Ned says he doesn't mind but thats the last time you'll make that mistake...." BANG
True story (ish)

With that pastie complection he definitly doesn't see the outside very often.

Going by the curve on the back & how it fits to the contour of the body, I'd say it's made for the fatter bassist.

Maybe that's why he thinks slapping is still cool.

I'll just stick a pillow up my jumper.

It is nice and all, but it had too many strings

Get me a 6 string with a 16mm spacing Ned! Here's a funny story. I asked EMG to make me a set of their soapbars with a curved top to match the radius of my Bass. I thought as I'd been using EMGs exclusively for over 15 years they might at least register some interest. Think I needed to be a big company making shed loads of basses!! They said no they wouldn't help lol.
