I know I'm going to be looking for an 8 string bass in about a year or two, I have the money but just bought a 4 string so I figure I shouldn't les G.A.S take control. I though about the Rogue 8 string but used ones are going for around $400 and I could get a used Shector for a little more. However the Brice caught my eye a 35' scale 8 string with active/passive MM and J pickups, seems similar to the Rogue but I think the Brice might be a better idea 35' scale also is $340 new as opposed to $400 used for a $200 bass that is discontinued. Does anybody have one of these? Would they recommend it? What about Brice itself as a company? Did you think the neck is chunky? I was thinking maybe getting the pickups replaced if they weren't great. Does it sound balanced or is it favoring the treble or bass strings? Thank you.
