KSD 6 Strings

[Surprise Panda!]

Hi

I searched, and it seems about no one on the board has one. Am I wrong? I'm reconsidering a six-string. If I don't get a six string, I'm probably going to get a Decade or DJ Skyline. Anyone in the Fender room at BP Live LA saw the new Fender 6er, does anyone know the release date, that looks very good too. I love the price on the KSD, but I prefer Lakland, if only they made a sixer...

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

-Roy

I don't know anything about their 6 strings, but I've been playing a 5 string KSD Proto-J in the local music shop. Excellent instrument! Sounds really good through the Krank amp they use for "test-drives". One odd thing though, is the strap pins. They are recessed into the body so that only the rim of the top is outside of the body, but you can see the bolt about 6 or so millimeters down... any info as to why Panda?

I know that TB'er 'T.B. Player' had an ash/maple sixer for sale in the Classified section a few months back (might still own it, not sure...).
