The darkside of multi-pu basses.....

The vibration of the bowstring attenuates faster for the magnet power(even if EMG used).

The consumption of the battery is faster.

No harmonics sound in the performance of the tune of jaco if I forget to change the combination,

( The purpose to arrange pickup layout and combinations is to find th sweet spot of the overtone element)

Possibility that woodwork fails

Decrease in resale value

The spectator expects a super-technique.

What's the history behind that Tune? I'm intrigued.

Looks like a movable pickup as well.

Nice bass - unique look - for some reason it reminds me of a danelectro - but I'm not sure why . . .

On the other hand,
the dark side of LINE6 sampling bass...

Piezo unit was broken 2 times at 4th E string.Slap damage?

Battery life is much shorter.

Special cable needed.

Dreaming up a Warmoth build: three Nordstrand Big Splits (Neck, Middle, Bridge) with an on-off switch for each, nothing else. Of course, just a dream..

Thank you for your reply.The beginning was the stingray's sweet-spot-layout-theory.When I was teenager,no money to buy stingray.So I began to play the experiments to reproduce the sound.
I found that is very easy and some little change makes big sound charactor.

At last I modified spector that is more expensive than stingray.....
Now I play with 2nd prototype.

This is a Warwick Custom Shop Star Bass II, made for Jason Scheff. This thing is GORGEOUS. I'm curious what the electronics are. Website says it's passive. My guess is V/T/V/T/V/T, but there's also a 3- or 5-way switch. Very interesting..
