Great tool!
I put this on my MIM jazz bass to add some versatility and out of some curiosity and I was pleasantly surprised because it actually works!
For some reason it seemed far too good to be true but its not and I use it all the time.
It saves a lot of hassle on stage if you can only use one bass and it also looks really cool!
The installation was a little tricky as I didn't use the screws that came with it when installing but the screws that were in the bass to begin with but as soon as I noticed my mistake it was a quick fix and it worked straight away.
My main issue with it is that tuning the xtended range note can be a bit of a pain until you get the hang of it.

Adds an Extra Dimension to Your Bass
The Hipshot D-Tuner is admittedly expensive, but is a precision piece of engineering.
I need to play notes below low-E for a number of different genres, but could never get the hang of a five-string bass. This device suits my purposes perfectly. It comes with clear, concise instructions and is easy to fit.
In use, it is simply a case of flipping the lever to drop the fourth string to D. Its operation is accurate and stable.
I found it so useful that I bought another for my fretless bass. This has the added advantage of facilitating parallel octaves across the second and fourth strings.
Recommended.

Good
For changing on the fly the hipshot d-tuner is amazing! i play in a function band and have to switch between E & D tunings in an instant. My only gripe is that it can be hard to get used to tuning it properly, its hard when you switch down to d to get used to adjusting the screw and not reaching straight for the tuning peg, but that's just habit and when you are used to tuning it holds its tune excellently. A great addition to my deluxe p-bass special.

nice gadget
installed on my fender player precision 4 string i modify for fun it was easy to install and is a nice addon to fast switch to dropped d tuning. keep in mind that it will also have an effect on the strings (slightly detuned) other than the e string, because it lowers the tension of said string. but the same would happen if you would tune your e string to d only and not retune the others string afterwards. if you are ok with this and are willing to pay this price, you get a nice quality gadget to play around and have fun with.
