Ed_S Posted Sunday at 08:58 Share Posted Sunday at 08:58 I really shouldn't be - I've done 6 strings a couple of times now, and whilst I genuinely like them for the novelty and have no problem playing them, it's not a feature I really need so they eventually fall out of use when the novelty wears off and they get sold on. But at that price and with that nut width, yeah, I could easily be tempted to go round again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazycloud Posted Sunday at 19:32 Share Posted Sunday at 19:32 I'm tempted, but see nothing it adds to the other 6s I own beyond novelty. It's cheap enough but has the drawbacks of FSO aesthetics and ergonomics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andruca Posted Sunday at 19:59 Share Posted Sunday at 19:59 (edited) I wonder how the neck profile on those feels (graphite reinforced slim C, as per specs). Edited Sunday at 19:59 by andruca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago Were it not for the fact that I already have three six-strings that I very rarely use, have an aversion to buying Fender/Squier, and think that the headstock is probably heavy enough without the pointless testicle dangling from it, it would be quite tempting.

andruca Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago I've never owned a 6 string and have only played a few. I don't know what I'd do with one. And still it IS tempting for the Jazz Bass lover in me. I think it sounds way better in the video from Empire Music (clearer and more detailed high end) then in Lobster's (harsher highs). Despite what Anthony (EM) claims, I really like how the neck pickup sounds soloed, at least the way he plays it 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
