    Headless bass handmade strap hook (for Steinberger Spirit, Hohner B2, etc..)

    I recently bought my second Hohner B2A in a couple of years. I sold the other one at the beginning of this year because, though I liked its lightness and slim neck, I didn't find its sound to be entirely convincing, especially in active mode; but this one was a real bargain and at that price I...

    Gig bag options for Steinberger XP2?

    I need to get a gig bag for my XP2. So far, I have seen discussion of bags for the L2/XL2's but not for the slightly wider XP2. HeadlessUSA claims their narrow headless bass bag fits the XP2 but I have read on TB that it is a little skimpy on protection. Any one find a better bag that is...

    NS Design Radius CR-4 bass guitar review

    This is the third 4-string electric bass I have of Ned Steinberger's designs. Since 1990 I've played a Steinberger XL2. It's a sweetheart. The only adjustments I've ever done to it are to change strings and tune it when I switch from E to Eb tuning. It stays in tune after months of playing. It...

    This is one of the less common Steinberger Spirit XP-25 mini-V basses. You see a lot of XT-25s, but I searched years for an XP-25. And it's in a less common color - bright red, red as a baboon's butt. Now that I have it, I've found that just don't need it! Condition is great - a few swirlies...

    Best travel bass? Hofner Shorty, Steinberger Spirit, Rogue Violin?

    Heya TB, I'm looking for your advice on the best travel bass for <$500. This bass will mainly go on car trips when I don't want to bring my main ax, so overhead bin size is not critical. I'd prefer something that's close in feel to a 34" scale J-neck if possible, but I threw the Kala into the...

    I hate to do this, but hail damage, car replacement, and college-age son require letting a few things go. The groundbreaking Steinberger L2 is like nothing else around. Solid molded one-piece composite body and neck, headless design and hardware, and swivel strap holder make for a bass that...

    Replacing fretboard on Steinberger Spirit XT-2 with fretless - bad idea?

    I bought this as a travel bass; the cool-factor from the '80s had nothing to do with it, I swear. The problem is that I don't just travel within the EU, but outside it to NZ, Australia and the UK (hey, they'll be on the outside soon enough). A rosewood fretboard and CITES are a not-fun...

    Straps and Steinbergers (and other small-bodied headless basses)

    I have a Hofner headless, looks rather Steinie-like but is not. It has a strap button where the neck meets the oh-so-small body, and one at the end of the body. This is not really useful as far as playing position, and puts the lowest frets way, way out from my body. I vaguely recall that...
