They're cool. I like the one's wit da Bob Moog electronics, too (they really work), and some have maple fret boards. Slick. I've played a few that were boat anchors, but weight / neck heavy has never been an issue for me.
If I didn't have an Explorer, I guess I'd have one of those.
The price went up since Mr. Grohl started squeezing them regularly, but RD's are still a great value.

lends itself to neck dive but i do have a chunk of aluminum for a neck.
haha! kevin is making me an aluminum RD at this very moment!
i've been a little worried about balance too. by 'chunk' do you mean the neck is solid aluminum?
better be a guitar, fucker!
no, i don't mean solid aluminum. i just mean a big ol' piece of it.

i've heard the all aluminums aren't too bad weight wise. but i guess i'll find out soon enough! heavy instruments never really bothered me anyway.
but enough about my radical new EGC bass guitar! let's get back to regular old boring gibson rds
