In 13 years of playing, I've never bonded with a bass like I have with this one...and I've been through a bunch. It's my baby.
I have a bunch of others, mostly weirdo cheapies, need to dig around for pics.

You mean under string tension? What's the reasoning behind this? I've always heard the exact opposite. Makes sense to me that damage to the bass anywhere along the string path would be exacerbated by the strings being under tension. Ever since I read the "how to ship an instrument" chapter of Dan Erlewine's book and saw that he agreed with the "always slack the strings before shipping" method, I've taken it as gospel.

Its just one of those things that got out there thanks to things like Erlewine's book and became "common knowledge", but wasn't actually based on anything other than it seemed to makes sense.
The point of keeping it under correct tension is that a neck is at its most stable with equal and opposing forces. Is it that big of a deal? maybe not, but you'll notice the majority of major manufacturers will ship basses with the strings at the correct tension.

allllllllll the freaking time. but i'm not that good. i like having all that range in one hand position.
i know it only gives you 5 more half steps to play with over a 5 string, but that is essential for chording stuff. sounds too thick and poo based if you chord butt loads on the lower strings. i tried 5's and 7's, i've always been more comfy on a 6.
if i WAS going to use a 5'er, i'd tune it EADGC 'cause i like the extra high range more than the lower range.

YES!!! I am with you on this. I've been tempted to get a cheap 5 for exactly this purpose.
