@adurgaram

yes, but why do they build basses like this? i have normal basses... an i never played one of those. is it nessasery to have one? does anyone know if there is a big difference?

[adurgaram]

Wauw the bass looks very nice !!!

[DiamondUrine]

It might not be tuned to pitch people, no tension = slippage

[TolerancEJ]

I saw the B string slip out a few times too. I'm sure they'll fix the nut issue before the production line is available to the public.

Great vids of the show!! did you see epiphone les paul ukulele??

[frederickus]

Why is the hollwbody UBASS $400-$500 and this, a solidbody, is going to be $1000?

[happyslappysoong]

@happyslappysoong also check 4:34...such a shame, it looks beautiful

[happyslappysoong]

looks like the nut on the 5 string bass doesnt hold properly. The string kept flicking out with Mike himself sneakily pushing back in the groove @ 2:58 and it pops straight back out by 3:25

wow, that 5-string ubass looks very cool!!
