Still being a neophyte to the bass world, I've wondered what are the benefits of the headless bass. I imagine the lack of headstock weight/hang is nice, but is there anything else of benefit?
Also, does a headless bass suffer the opposite of neck dive, whatever that's called? (Neck climb? Neck flip? Neck fly-up-and-whack-you-in-the-nose?)
My headless bass is Maruszczyk Fog Omega 5.
It has balanced with a lightweight design.
A feeling like you have no bass when you hang around his neck .
Sounds as compared to other headed basses, much more punchy bass.
Already almost impossible to be physically neck diving . Top horn goes to the 11. fret, not 12. These feature provides incredible balance and comfort.
Another special future is ETS bridge. You can use regular or double ball strings on this bass.
It has 2 strap pins. If you don't like the first pin's angle, you can use second strap pin for balance and comfort.
It has huge sustain, set neck may be the cause .
Very easy and very light moving .
When I ride the motorcycle, I can carry the bass on my back. The gig bag lenght is 100 cm.
These are amazing features my headless. I recorded a video today with my basses. I will share it when I finish the videotapes.
