I couldn't say it any better. Yes, the fanned frets make a differnece. More 'in tune' across the entire range of the fingerboard. The Charlie Hunter is a...
Thanks Don. The white GL in the middle is a 12 string. I bought it from the former guitarist of Eddie Rabbit's band. I've since sold it to a guy in Oregon. It ...
Mats, I think it'd actually work out fairly nicely, though you'd obviously have to get different lengths in your strings, so don't really see why it couldn't...
I received my first Steinberger ever, a Synapse XS-15FPA, serial number U05016673, last weekend while out of town gigging. I dug this bass immediately upon...
AC, Played a small-sized, hollow body that was a 7-string with the fanned frets and it was lots of fun to play, though, there was only a tiny learning curve...
The funny thing is that neck and fretboards are still made with radius on the frets - no matter if it is compound radius or whatever - because ones fingers...
... by ... How would it make the TT useless? Would the string-angle to the saddles affect the length of the string to much? It would be quite a small...
OK, I've noticed a problem on both the fretted and fretless basses. On the headpiece where you can string regular strings, there are hex screws that you use to...
Thanks Jason, I'll check mine again to see if that condition exists before I finish packing it up to send it back(mine came with a ding in the neck). I agree,...
Since we may never see a lefty Synapse my opinions may be moot but I will offer them up anyway. :-) I am not sold on the idea of satin finishes either. I would...
Ditto! That and the search window option would've helped me about a week ago when I asked apparently redundant or stupid questions...I read all the posts via...

... You can adjust the overall volume of the piezo in the conrol cavity. The other two trim pots control the tone - one for the BEA strings, the other for DG...
... Nope, that's not it. The headpiece has 5 holes where the hex screws go in. However, there are bushings (like you put in a Fender headstock for the tuning...
It's come to my attention that the Korean Synapse factory may be grounding all the Synapse circuits to the bridge. I called Ned about this. We agreed that...
I might want to add that the Piezo wire is black also, so if you have only one black wire going to the bridge DON'T CUT IT! I was rewiring my guitar for an EMG...
Well, that's the final straw, then. I'm glad I had a chance to try them out, and I will definitely give them a go sometime down the road, but it all just adds...
Gang - Here's a copy of the revised Synapse setup directions. I worked with Ned on these a few weeks back so they have his blessing. Unfortunately the piezo...
Not to be too nit-picky, but I only recall one Transcale reported on this board with QC issues. Most of the problems were with the standard length Synapses....
