I don't have the answer, but it's like learning a whole new instrument, so it might take a few thousand hours ;} I love the C4. Try starting with a single voice with pitch tracking filter set to 1 octave on the clean sound, then add another with square and or triangle wave and play with the...

I started working out at 17 after moving to USA from Australia the year before (1980) and putting on about 25 pounds. Lost most of that first year in college. Went thru various phases and due to spinal issues can't lift heavy weights but still do light weights and resistance bands twice a...

always liked the Steinberger L style, would try to find a 5 string fretless. Also see if someone could put together a GL style fretless guitar. Plus there'd be more time to play and more time to "research" instruments.

quick and dirty photo. Big Spyderco fan. The Yojimbo 2 is amazingly smooth action. The boker urban trapper petite is only 30g, great for edc wearing slacks. The microtech exocet is very cool, but might move it on for music gear.

One benefit of tai chi and chi gung is distributed body awareness. Can help with postural issues that cause extra tension. Swimming and other exercise in pool is great for overall fitness.

tapeworms are mostly gut, so retro-future gut bass strings

My theory is the name comes from the fact that they have "the spirit but not the substance" of the original Steinbergers. I'm very happy with my XT25, bought used last year. The pickups don't have any name badge (or any other markings at all), so I think they were replaced but previous owner...

I'm just a home hobby player. Converted this one about 3 years ago, now I play about half the time fretted and half fretless. I like to play along with any microtonal music i can find online including music from around the world and more experimental western stuff. The top 2 plain strings can...

Thanks very much for the info guys!

Do they both feel comfortably balanced on strap or sitting, i.e. no neck dive? Also, any other comparative impressions about the playing feel and sound. Probably looking for fretless at that time, if my hands get strong enough. (It will be far future for me, but these 2 are top of my wishlist...

It's your creative juices flowing. :}

I don't know what else I want yet, but I want it yesterday! Beginner bassist (mainly play guitar), but very happy with Steinberger Spirit XT25 and Hartke KB12, with PTD Rotobone for dirt. Simple, light, and can hear the low end clearly. p.s. Also C4. Try it with pitch tracking filter...

Did you talk to him about how you feel?
