Really weird that where up briefly because I kept on checking and then they eventually where not there so I'm going to need to figure something else to how I'm going to post these.

I wanted to thank Chris & George at Link Removed for being the utmost coolest guys to deal with regarding my Zon, I highly recommend these guys if you are wanting to order the Zon bass of your dreams.
How's the balance? Every Zon 6 string I've owned has been neck heavy and considering the legacy body shape I would assume it would be even more an issue.
My Sonus 6 is perfectly balanced (can jump around and the neck will still point 30degs up), and my Vinny 6 even more so.
On the balance thing, I think it matters a LOT if it's a model with a relief adjuster or not. I think Joe told me that adds almost a pound to the neck, but even if that's off, those necks are at least definitely heavier. My older Sonus 5 (no adj) is very light overall, and the neck is very light. My newer Sonus 5 (w adj) is still not neck heavy, but the neck is noticeably heavier at least.
FWIW.
FWIW.

I did this on my TJ5 Fretless....it is much more balanced now and much more comfortable to play.
I'll be perfectly honest it's not perfectly balance but not extreme neck heavy either, I do where a guitar strap when I'm sitting down playing on the bass and it doesn't neck dive what so ever.
The bass it self is extremely alive, the response on this instrument is out of this world not to mention the action on this bass is nice and low with absolutely no buzzing at all.
The harmonics on the bass are beautiful, nice even notes across the entire fingerboard.
Honestly the best high end bass I've ever owned in ever aspect of the word.
