I play the “NS Design CR5 Radius Fretless Satin” bass. As an instrument maker and as a musician I chose the ” CR5 Radius ” because of its super construction and versatility. I enjoy playing different types of music such as jazz, Turkish folk and modern styles. I am thrilled to hear the different kinds of sounds from the “NS Design Piezo System” and the “EMG Pickup System” on my bass.—Selim Gürcan
