    What I always enjoy about your videos is that you actually play the additional strings on a 5 OR 6 string. Not to mention it sounds very natural when you do so. So many reviewers barely touch the additional strings in their reviews of certain bass guitars. Great job is always. Pretty cool instrument.

Hope they do a headless version too (Zeus, please?) I will say the tone sounds a bit too dark for my tastes here though.

We have to see a comparison between all the top multiscales you have available, it’d really be interesting to see what each company offers like the stark contrasts between the Spector Dimension’s Fishman pickups compared to the Dingwall or Kiesel and maybe even the Ibanez BTBs with the 37” scales with those interesting rail style pickups if possible.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your work, you're a true motivation to play bass.

    As long as Kiesel isn't using Hipshot hardware and good pots, these only slay the import Dingwalls, and only if you consider being $200+ more for nearly identical specs having slayed them. If you can ask Kiesel to use Hipshot hardware and Alpha pots, then maybe they can touch Canadian Dingwalls.

    As someone who owns neither (yet) I think Dingwall benefits price-wise from doing basically only one thing, and doing it well. Kiesel has so many variables I can imagine it's easy to put a lot of hours into their builds without even reaching the same quality level as Dingwall.

    Tell me if I'm wrong here: Swamp Ash body, Royal Ebony fretboard, neck-through, fanned frets (too obvious - ha!) I have 13 Keisel basses from 4 to 6 strings, and they are all awesome!! I did the unthinkable and got a 6-string Icon converted into a 5-course (B-E-A-D-G) 10-string. It plays as well and as easily as before and just sounds incredible beyond description. This new baby, the A2, is going to give Dingwall and the ESP B-1005 some fierce competition for sure. Oh, one more thing - Hipshot hardware?
