    LaBella makes nickel, stainless steel, and flatwound strings for Bass VI guitars. I've tried them and love them. They also apparently make tapewounds for Bass VI, but I haven't tried them, and I dunno how well they would work on a vibrato system like the Bass VI's. Circle K makes custom sets as well for Bass VI, but I've yet to try any of them (they're much cheaper than LaBella though).

    Eagerly awaiting any information at all! Even a body shape diagram! Pickup choice! Pickguard or top rout!

    ANYTHING. PLEASE.

    Hopefully next week we'll see the addition of some Bass VI style kits.
    Cheers,

    With the amount of interest in this kit it looks like it will sell out immediately

    oh yeah! With all the interest here I'm afraid they'll sell out before I get my grubby little mitts on one. Are they the standard fender offset shape?

    Sorry folks, bad news on the Baritone model.

    Despite my detailed instructions, what they have actually supplied is a 25.5" scale Jazzmaster style kit.

    Really nice looking kit, but not the 30" Bass VI style kit we ordered.

    We are working with the factory to see if they can supply the correct necks, but they would not be here until the new year.

    Will update when e have sorted the necks.
    Cheers,

    Adam
