I've been lusting for an 8 string for 2 years now, and that thing is just GORGEOUS. I will get in the 3rd run of them (they need to be preordered) So it's VERY limited editions.
However, I will have to ship it halfways across the world, with NO WARRANTY. Also I have a feeling that the Danish tax will screw me over royally.
The bass will be my first active bass, and it's the ONLY manufacturer of 7string basses at a reasonable price. For what's in it, it's an incredible price.
Also, it's located in Sweden, so it's right next door. Very convenient (no tax, easier shipping)
What the hell am I gonna do the preorder on the 8string will probably need to be signed within few weeks.
