    they have a really cool and unique design the patters of metal by the bridge is actually there for more resonance. I played on it was nice but the looks were too "metal" for me. the sound also didn't beat a jazz. It's all what you like if you think the sound is good along with looks its a good bass.

    There has been a lot of Traben bashing here in the past for some reason. But the new series of basses have made more people take notice. Smaller bridges and different body shapes, plus upgraded electronics make them really competitive now, IMO. I wouldn't have any trouble putting cash down for one of the new ones, if it was something I wanted.
