It's like German Bow/French Bow. Neither one is easier. There are only preferences.

Cool Extension and the Lows..

I went thru this about a year ago and did a Poll. There are many threads about this and you can search them here. Here is the POLL I did; Which Extension and another one about 5ers.. <The 5-String Orchestra Bass>

I like it plain or Latched. The Machine also works good but not always good for the Bass and Neck.
