I played one at NAMM 2011, which was for TB’er Tom7, iirc. An absolute master instrument. I love the smaller radius on the fingerboard; the roundness just makes 6 strings super comfy. If I’m able to ever spec out another F Bass, I’d order it with this radius.

Hm, I wonder if I could somehow justify to my wife that I need TWO of these basses... ;)

For everyone's information, only 9 replicas were made. This bass is 6 of 9 (I have 7 of 9). I love having basses that aren't just wonderful players' basses, but have something unique about them. A story.

YCBass mentioned the roundness of the fingerboard on this bass; it really is nice. I imagine it takes more effort to hand make a bass like this, but the improved playability helps with fatigue, especially on a 6-string neck.

Speaking of fatigue, my BN6 LE (Limited Edition) weighs exactly 9.1 pounds. I have 5-string basses that weigh more!

The light weight of this bass has made it a favorite for playing live shows.
