Bass opinion Please!
Has anyone played a Kramer "Duke" (headless) bass or one like it? Need some opinions on the headless basses. Help!! I'm looking at buying one.

Yes, I've played one. OK.
Given a choice, and for the money, I'd get a Steinberger Spirit.
A cheaper version of the real deal, not someone's idea of a better take on the headless bass.

I like it. The bass usually takes up too much space IMO.

Gruesome...
I guess everyone is different and I certainly appreciate that
Let us know how it plays and sounds... and of course, more photos!
