Do Musicman offer a 'downsized' (light weight) bodied bass?

You could try a G&L Kiloton bass (although you might not like the headstock if you don't like Sandberg. I don't know if they ever made them with the normal headstock but guess not as they are a more recent design I think)

 

I forgot to point out that there are Kilotons made from Empress out there. Here's an old advert for one - just 7.2 lbs

A thought: How about commissioning @Andyjr1515 to build you a semi acoustic style MM body (a la Spectorcore) - it would be unique.

That’s stunning.

G&L and Musicman have been really bringing it to another level lately.

Agree on G&L.

 

Musicman have upset me, I’m not talking to them 😂

I've never owned one. I just can't go with those prices.

If someone gave me this, I'd definitely play it, though.
