| | | | Yeah, he has a couple of sixes in his studio. The electronic press kit for Silver Rain shows them.
I read somewhere where he said he does play them, but prefers the 4 because it makes him think a little more about placement of notes and stuff, if I recall.

Great DVD by the way. | I'm not disputing what you are saying, but I have a video of him playing a fretless Fodera 4 string.

When ever I have read in interview on his studio releases, he mentions his Modulus fretless. So that was an assumption of mine.
BTW, Which Video of him? (with the Fodera) |
