Compliments on the super-cool bass Eden. Sadly I'm all multi-strung out.

To any prospective buyers - Eden is an absolute ace at modifying and setting up just about anything, but 8 and 12 string basses are a particular speciality.

Thanks Kira and Evan!
As a guitar player that simply prefers to play bass, I have always wanted to hear the presence of the bass without being over loud. You can use a much smaller amp with an octave bass and still be audable..
If a P bass is a chev 350, a J is a 283 with extractors and a dual system + a sports filter..
A Rickenbacker is the Valiant E49 Charger (look that one up)
The Waterstone TP-12 is considered to be the Mack truck of basses..
I feel the Polymack Whistlebird comes in as the E series GM locomotive of the bass world..
