Ibanez Terra Firma

Does anyone have a 6 string Ibanez Terra Firma Bass? Any feedback please! I looking into buying one.

Thanks

I own the 5 string Terra Firma... It's my main gigging bass. I like the look, cause it's quite unique being a single cut bass. The string spacing is 19 m so it's preferable cause our song list often covers slap songs. The Bartolini BH1 pickups are kinda deep voicing, so I prefer to pair them with bright strings (I also have another bass with BH1 pickups).

My comment about the 6 string Terra Firma is that for sure it's not gonna be light weight. Mine is 4.4 Kg, so I'm guessing the 6 string would be something in the 5 Kg area. Just for the sake of comparison, I own several 6 string basses and the lightest is SRFF806 which weigh only 3.8 Kg.

I own one. I also own a BTB1606EDTF. I almost prefer the Terra Firma 6 over the 1606. Such TONE. And the tone is more consistent thru the B string thru the high C than on the 1606.
