Re: 4/5/6 string bass



 >>The extra low string only sounds good on those low notes.
Really it's pushing the limits of string thickness for getting a good  
tone,
...and can sound a bit flabby if you try to use it higher up the neck.<<

...unless you get a good one, but as we all know now, spending more  
than $599 on any piece of gear turns you into an elitist. ;o)

I've got two Modulus six string basses, where all the strings are  
useable across the whole range... If your strings sound crap, try a  
lighter guage on the bottom and a slightly heavier one on the top...
