    Very nice!

    What's the balance like? Headstock dive makes any bass a "NO" for me.

    Thanks man - much appreciated!
    My consultancy fee for adjusting the design is a quite reasonable £1675.

    Thanks man,

    A bass at sub 7lb will certainly like to lean toward the neck. So sat down itl lean toward the neck, but as soon as you put a strap on whether you're sat down or stood up it doesnt dive to the floor.

    Video to show it!

    That doesn't look bad.

    I've been spoilt by my Sandberg superlight.

    Under 6.5lb and zero dive.

    So this one is going to Ellis Durand who plays bass in the incredible Wet Leg!

    This is with the plate 20mm back and then the access hole for the truss rod, certainly is a better layout


    Just seen him playing it at Glastonbury!! Congrats!

     I too saw the bass above when watching the Glastonbury coverage. I didn't see all the set, but spotted the bass and thought it was a Trent. This was before I saw this discussion. Congratulations on getting it out there and your shapes being distinctive enough to be distinguishable from other brands. The only thing I will say is I couldn't confirm it was a Trent as I couldn't read the headstock as the bassist briefly appear on the footage. Might just have been me, but is it worth making your decal a bit bolder?
