I'm sure it said "Hi Tension" a minute ago! Lol 😀 But Yes quite light

Mark's Original DI'd

Never had that trouble with any of mine. Even the Kingbass sounds deep & growls (I use heavier string than most though). I find The mid boost can get close to the JD growl but My JD has a better woody mid range & growl (Probably as heavy as the S2 6 though!) B

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Good People over the Pond

These two came up one after the other on the iPod (old School!) whilst I was Turbo Training today (even older School!!). I think they are a perfect fit!!!

I've got a S2 6 string Classic Cocobolo over Mahogany with Graphite through neck which is on the heavy side (still around 5 kilo so not to bad for a 6) & a S1 6 Classic Swamp Ash with Graphite bolt on that only weight just under 4 kilo. However the S1 has some neck dive as the neck pulls down the light body. So yeah guess Graphite is probably just as heavy as the hardwoods. Sound great though!!

Oh Yeah agree with that. I will sign Your change.org petition to get JD to make a 6 string Calibas that weighs 3.5 kilos LOL 😄 That would be very nice...

Think You mean the Celeste not the Calibas. But as others have said it's a small workshop not a factory they are fully busy already.

Aye 👇 it's not crap it's Stuff!!! LOL 🤣

Wow that's fantastic. Didn't know Sandberg did a 24 fret 6er. Enjoy!

That's real tidy compared to some of mine! Draws full ...

Gosh that Charts makes me feel old!

Didn't know it was Graphite! Bugger I really want one now!!! 🤣 Kiwi I don't want to derail this thread but are there any pics of yours in another ?

As it was "The Pirate Bass" from His pirate period 🙄 Probably 30 pieces of silver? !!! Lol 😂

When I first started playing this was on TOP or OGWT to me at the time Greg was the epitome of "a bass player" I wanted the doggy pilot jacket the 8 string Alembic & everything (I think I thought I could sing like Greg then too!!!) Fortunately for me when I could afford the Flying Jacket I got a classic like Keith's -- And I have never seen a real Alembic 8 let alone tried one

Is it Me? or is there some confusion going on here between "Playing a Bass Solo" and "Solo Bass"? Bass Solo -- Make the band/artist sound good the Groove is sacred Solo Bass -- Show Your Stuff

That's Lovely Matt 👍

Not sure if Tapewound would work with one of the adaptors? Expensive experiment if it doesn't suit though! Status (the company) used to sell some Great Halfwound DB strings for a great price, but not anymore ☹️ Somebody might make them though?

Nice 👍 but like I say not too many bargains on DB Deep-Talkings. I think SumOne might like a Status (Like the ADF Guy) but they don't give them away either 🤣

Reggaebass do you run double-ball flats on that? The only ones I've ever found cost a bomb. I do think part of the of the original Steinberger sound is the Carbon-Fiber in my experience Flats sound great on Carbon basses

Stuck at first hurdle! Not on Spotify (I alway purchase any album I listen to more than twice). Will seek out elswhere.

Ta, I just read about him on't interweb. I was sure I read in one of the comics years ago that He & Alembic designed one of the first 5s with Hi C. But yeah All Bios say "First 5 with low B". Think how He could solo with an extra string... !!! (Insert Ducks-down EMOJI) LOL 🤣
