    Custom inlay starts at 590 Euro last I was told and Luminlay is fairly expensive as a material so I'd assume a bit more than that.

    I meant that the raw has translucent covers as they're textured but slightly see through. Whoops.

    It is quite legitimately just a hole that goes to the electronics cavity and the inside of the cavity cover is painted so that you don't just see through it as the raw models come with opaque cavity covers.

    More kitten photos because he's a good lad. the tortoise shell kitty is Tube's sister, Ponk. My roommate took her in at the same time I took in Tube. Tube is very laid back and cuddly, while Ponk is an endless ball of energy. Didn't have enough sunlight to get a picture with the finger ramp(a...

    I play fairly close to the bridge as well and it feels normal, though I'm used to playing Dingwall. The added attachable thumb ramp helps a ton. I'll grab pics with that address in a bit. It's 35" to 32.5", I wouldn't go much lower than a low B, maybe drop it to A, but the low B sounds great...

    Right off the bat, everything except for the finish on this bass is exceptional. If you can manage to snag one of these used or B-stock like myself, they are a ton of bass for the money. This is the new 2022 version of the 6 string EHB lineup and it has the new humbucking pickups that are also...

    This happened to me with my 070R, basically, FedEx refuses to use their own systems that they have in place, and would rather have you enter your info in a Google doc. If you call them and get with an agent and be very clear with the email that it needs to be sent to you can politely ask that...

    its already been delivered for quite a while, I've been working too much as well as moving into a new home so I haven't had time to give it a proper review. It plays great and sound wild though!

    New Dingwall String Tree ?

    That exact model you share in this post has the individual rubber ball string holders. Here's another picture from the same dealer.

    Basses are still in R&D stage. Looks like they're starting R&D with 5 strings though from what I've seen.

    Ibanez 2022 discussion.

    Exactly, I've gotten used Aristides for much less than the new Bowen sig. I didn't realize that's what the MAP price was as that's the price it's listed at on Axe Palace but even if it's closer to $2600~ I still don't see the value, maybe if it had a LoPro. 🤷

    Ibanez 2022 discussion.

    That Jake Bowen sig being a whopping $3299 USD really killed my idea that I'd get one. Getting three more frets and losing his signature pickups is a really weird trade-off at that price point.

    I do feel the need to point out that this isn't a headless bridge and is designed quite different from their headless hardware.

    It's basically just a much better matte finish, it's more akin to an oiled wood neck in how fast it is while being more consistent. You don't notice the feel of the texture much as it's under a graffiti resistant coating. Having had painted builds and raw builds I don't think I'll ever go back...
