As a recent & proud owner of a Zon TJ6, I'd say that Todd is under-selling the instrument. In addition to the "TJ" thing, this is the best all round bass that I have ever owned (and thats quite a few!). It is also great for rock gigs. A very aggressive tone when played near the bridge that cuts right through the mix. The TJ6 frightened the guitar player and even the singer complimented the sound! (Life doesn't get better). My Sadowsky Metro 5 spends most of its time in the case now.
Of course, we need to put the umlaut over the "a" in ganger. Then we get leather pants, tattoos, piercings (no nipples please) and we re-create the classic Yngwie Malsteem repertoire on dual TJ6s. Waddya say? We'll SHRED dude!
I got mine in January, and I have to say - it's the best 6 string bass I've ever played! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!! Thanks Joe and Todd, this bass goes way beyond my expectations. Todd, we need to start a band... Doppelganger!
No dealers in Canada? :(

@daveDrD1 can you post a video of the slap sound of the bass? and are you thinking about selling the sadowsky? :))

I want to see what the low B sounds like actually being played since its only a 34" scale.

Seriously though, thats a really cool bass. It looks comfortable and sounds great.
Nice groove you played throughout the video, as well.

Awesome bass Todd! TB Member Jordasch, saw your thread.
I love the quilted maple top, and the high register notes are crystal clear!
My favorite part of the whole video though was when you said "If you put um up there, Im gonna wanna play em!"
Oh so true!

It's the active pickups that require the battery. A lot of instruments are using actives these days. They are far superior in sound quality.

If Doppelganger does a duet of Spinal Tap's "Big Bottoms", films it and puts on YouTube, I promise I'll forward it to all my friends.
