I’m not getting his 1/2" thickness claim, unless he’s referring to the treble edge only. It’s visually thicker throughout various points on the body.

Well, you had a good run, Mike, but not this one - sorry, buddy :joy:

It looks like cut out from my mum’s old kitchen table, with half a doily still on there.

It’s not ugly… just too bland for me! (Can’t have a bland bass on a bland guy, if you know what I mean :grin:)

I’m a visual designer. I find the minimalism of this design appealing.

Personally, it’s not my bag, but I think its retro, yet uniquely hip, styling is cool looking in a Tarantino-revised-history kind of way.

And, for the record, I think you would look mah-velous sporting one of these on stage. :wink:

Yep, I agree. But they will build one with the correct number of strings upon request, though. :joy:

It’s cool that you can get it as a six string.

Never seen a Jabba as a 6. That would just be…wrong. :no_mouth:

Not the HF models anymore, as far as I know (and have heard/been told). I am really not sure why…

I think the signature models are all fivers, probably because the artists play fivers. My Mala 4 was offered as a limited edition 4-string. Same with your Ferauds. Once those limited runs happened, that was it. This was why I had my custom built to my specs, with making it a 4-string being the most critical spec. Of course, that one spec rippled through all others, most importantly being the need for them to create custom Velvetrone pups.
