Steinberger Spirit XT v Hohner H2

[BetaFunk]

Anyone know which one of these is nearest in design to the original Steinberger L Series basses?

 

I realise that the materials used was different but how about the dimensions?

 

Any info appreciated.

The Hohner is closer, I think, ever so slightly

 

the string spacing is wider on then both 

 

ill take a pic of them side by side for you tomorrow 

 

 

Here’s how they all sound

Thanks! What a great video. I've been fascinated by these since I saw Jamaladeen Tacuma playing a black Steinberger L2 c1981/2. He was the first person I'd ever seem play one at time. I bought a new Hohner B2A in the 90s but sold it when I had a clear out of some basses about 15 years ago. Now it's time to buy either the Spirit or the Hohner.
