I have acquired a Washburn headless bass quitar (black) that was purchased by my brother in the mid 1980-s in Seattle, WA. The body is not symmetrical at the top and I cannot find any indication of model or identify a seriel number anywhere on the instrument. Only the word "WASHBURN" in white caps appears on the body and on each of the two pick-ups. I know he purchased it in 1986 and it came with a leather gig bag. Any identifying information would be appreciated.

This popular thread has been given its own page : What Guitar Company made : "THE STING" Headless Bass????
I am seeking an answer to the same question, but mine is a standard 6 string. Same description and everything.
I’ve been researching headless guitars, and I believe the guitar and bass you are asking about was made by Hondo back in the 80’s
I have a Headless Bass that is shaped like a very radical Explorer style body. The ball end of the string’s set in the top of the neck, then the string’s go thru the bridge and attach to the regular style tuners at end base of the body. On the lower front horn of the body, it has THE STING written on it, which is the model name. I would like to know if anyone know’s what guitar company manufacted it(KRAMER , HONDO , Ect.?????)
If you have or could find or whatever, a Lefty Synapse XS-15FPA, I would just cry with joy and all that good stuff.

This popular thread has been given its own page : Steinberger Synapse ST-2FPA TranScale Headless FOR SALE
I am in Switzerland, and will sell this new black guitar in Europe. PRICE: 1000 euros (+port).
THIS GUITAR IS NOT IMPORTED IN EUROPE ! (And probabely won’t be imported for a long time).
The ultra high-tech Steinberger Synapse ST-2FPA TranScale Electric Guitar is a professional-quality, full-scale, high-end guitar that’s small and easy to carry. Play it open and it’s a baritone; roll the built-in capo up a couple of frets and it’s a normal 25-1/2" guitar. Add to this Steinberger’s brilliant design features such as the tune-it-once direct-drive double-ball bridge with piezo pickup, EMG USA humbucking pickups, fold-down leg rest, and graphite-reinforced neck ultrafast phenolic fingerboard.
Contact me if interested…

Hi,
I recently bought a "Jack" shaped Hohner six string "framboise" colored with steinberger trem. Problem is I cant find the trem arm as it came without.Help???
I have always wanted a headless and wow was I happy to get a really good one. It is a dream to play and I feel so free on stage and so comfortable in the studio. I have all the tonality I could desire and this guitar is going to stay with me. Jack six strings seem a bit "unknown" and I always thought they only existed as basses. Cant buy a new one as Ive checked. In London in Denmark St just shugging shoulders….any info please?
Let the heads roll…. as we say in France!
No head all brain, Christo.
hey christo, ive just got 1 of these great guitars, been lookin for a while and got it off ebay for a silly price! you could try hohner cshop, ive used them before and they had all i required, a question to you:- ive got a loose red wire coming from a small black terminal box called “claim blend sound” i havent a clue where it goes, can you help? or can anyone else. thanks.
Greetings,

Hi, my name is Larry and I own a Riverhead bass. I’m not sure of the model name because I bought it used from a pawn shop about 3 years ago. It looks like a Steinberger copy. I love the sound (fulltime active EMG pickups) but I find it uncomfortable to play. If you’re interested, make me an offer.

I’ve just bought 2 headless basses and would like any info about manufacturers, likely dates etc etc. Not been able to find anything on the web yet.
1. An Alien 4 string passive. Looks a lot like a Kramer Duke (except I think it is all wood) with Grover tuners at the bridge end and a double pickup like a Musicman.
2. A Sidewinder (??by Fernandes ??) 4 string active. Body shape not unlike a Warwick thumb bass. Steinbereger type bridge and tuners. Double EMG like pickups. 4 controls and a switch on the body front.
Thanks in advance. Felix

This popular thread has been given its own page : Ibanez Axstar
I am the proud onwner of one of those axstar basses. I like it qiet a lot, but it not the bass you think it is. It is not a super actif-slapping bass, but instead i like too play it with a pick, and like that, it really sounds like a good old bass. A problem is that the bridge pick-up is something too weak, so you must be carefull using the balance button. I heard many people who replaced the original pick-ups by EMG’s but i didn’t. I have to admit that it looks bizar when you see a blues bass player playing regular blueslines, when playing such a little, headless bass. The serial number normally begins with the year when it was build. mine has ser. Number 850385, which means it was build in 1985.
