A great add-on to an already awesome product
As great as the original Hipshot Bass Xtender is, this little add-on ups the fun by giving you three different notes you can tune your lowest string to. I chose D and B along with an E. Its only problem is that with the low tension Dunlop Super Bright Nickel Roundwounds or Dunlop Flatwound strings I like to use, it won't tune down to B with the Fender keys on my 83 P or 09 AmStd P. On my PJ bass with Hipshot Ultralite keys, it works absolutely perfectly. But I came to find out that the Dunlop SBN's and Flats have a thinner inner core than normal tension strings, and with the bigger tuning posts on the Fenders, the best you can get is a slightly sharp C.
But this is something Hipshot says they're going to address in a future add-on, and I will be first in line to get one. Until then, I'm just using the single stop lever, which by now has established itself as one of the most innovative products for bass players in the last 30 years, if not the most innovative.

Best flats I've ever used, bar none
Best flats I have ever used, bar none, and yes, TI maniacs, better than Jazz Flats, which as far as I'm concerned might as well be rounds. I first tried Dunlops in 2016 when they first came out and instantly loved them. They're not all sticky and grabby, they're low tension but not like wet noodles, and while they're quite bright and ringy out of the box, when they go dead, they have a thump that equals or betters the thumpiest flats out there with a slightly attenuated top end compared to Chromes or LaBellas. Perfect! Only problem I had with them is that they were only available in 45-105 or 50-110 gauges, and I prefer 40-100 because I don't want to work that hard.
Finally they started making them this year in 40-100, so I bought a set, and I'm happy to report that they're every bit as great sounding as the heavier gauges and are even easier to play! So now I'm all about Dunlops...been using Super Bright Nickels on my basses with roundwounds for a few years now, and I'm happy to be sporting their flats on my flats basses, too.
