Well I do use all 5 of my strings about the same, so I guess a 6er would mean even fewer position shifts.
But honestly, the big idea would be to just confuse ppl
sigh.. i remember the excited twinge i used to get before getting hold of my bongo for the 1st time... now i'm used to riding godzilla bareback but I still get twinges!
@Swedish Owl: Haha, any longer than that, and i'll need more than 24 hrs in a day. But hey, we all make sacrifices for what we love. Doesnt make me much different!
@strummer: I bet u do! Have a quick look at this and witness the most complex mainstream song from Pakistan!

N yea, I have scared quite a LOT of ppl by my 5 string bass. They think im some kind of bass god or something before I even plug in!! (Of course once I DO plug in, the views change! )
