Anyone else put a low F# on a 6 string bass?

Well, actually, mines sitting and holding C#, F#, B, E, A and D.........no lie, custom string set from Kalium, nickel/steel hybrid.

I.........dont EXACTLY suggest doing it? I mean yeah bragging right etc. aside, its a little on the carry side. Even a 36" scale length cant quite make it happen.......but the low F# is still punchy and melodic, now THAT I totally recommend :3
