"I've had the Hipshot D-Tuner on all my basses since 1990, and use it all the time, in almost every show and most sessions. It's kept me from playing a 5-string forever. My basses simply wouldn't be complete weapons without it !" Bjorn's credits include: Robin McAuley(of MSG), Quiet Riot, Heaven & Earth, Bleed, Soul Sign and many more. check out : http://www.BjornEnglen.com

"I love the tremolo bridge! It's not only a lot of fun to play, it has extended my range as a soloist. But the best thing is, when I bring this bass onstage, the audience really reacts when I use the trem, it's pretty cool to watch the fans enjoying the sounds that I can get out of it!! Thank you Hipshot & Michael Tobias." Greg has worked with Buddy Guy, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Gov't Mule and The Black Crowes to name a few. He also auditioned for the Rolling Stones which he says "Was an amazing experience!"

"Hipshot hardware is simply the best available. I've used the Ultra Lite tuners as replacement parts on basses to help them balance better (which helps me play better). My custom built Birdsong Cortobasses use all Hipshot hardware, from the top-of-the line A-style bridge to the Ultra Lite tuners. Hipshot customer service is as top-notch as their products and they are a great company to work with." Millard currently anchors The Marsh Mellow Stone Band which has been described as "the modern voice of classic rock". His bass lines have been described as McCartney-esqe and you can hear them on their debut album, "peace - love - respect - groove".

"I love my hipshot Xtender.  I flick the lever, I'm ready for the next song.  While my guitar players are switching guitars, I've got time to relax and have a few drinks.  It's great."   Check out www.static-x.com

"I am long time user, Hipshot D-Tuner have been a part of my gear for years. I love seeing the guitar player struggling to switch guitars in time for the next song while I just flick the Hipshot and I am ready to go. Best thing is that it takes you all but 3 minutes to install them on the bass. Hipshot all the way!!!"   Check out: www.marten.cc

"I've been using the Hipshot B-Bending System exclusively since 1983. Without exception, all my signature guitars with Fender and G&L have always come standard with Hipshots. It's the only way to go." Please check out : www.willray.biz www.hellecasters.com

"I love the Hipshot Ric bridge. It's a night & day improvement over the stock bridge. String response, playability, punch, sustain, tone, & clarity are all improved dramatically. " "The bass now plays in tune all the way up & down the neck. You can adjust each string individually for height, intonation & spacing." "Installation is a breeze. You can do it yourself with no problems. The mounting holes line up perfectly with the stock holes. All you need is a philips screwdriver." "And, it looks great, it retains the look of the stock bridge." “Rickenbacker is a registered trademark of Rickenbacker International Corporation.
