One question:
The Hotdotz look as if visible not only from the top (POV player) but also from the front (POV audience), due to the slightly raised nature of the leds - as compared to factory installed side-leds, which are not raised and thus less visible from the front view of the audience.
Here is the question:
Will the hotdotz even be sufficiently visible for the player if installed on the opposite side of the fretboard, i.e. on the highest string side instead of the lowest string side? I would assume you'd have to slightly tilt the bass towards you, but somehow that's what happens when I play automatically.
The reason for asking is, that I found when playing in higher registers (e.g. soloing) especially on a fretless bass side-led-markers are sometimes so far away from the higher strings that they don't always give a good impression on the correct position. I assume, that is also one reason why e.g. Mark King had Status install these awkwardly displaced front fretmakers on his signature King bass, which are not centered but closer to the higher string position.
Would the hotdotz be easy to read if on the opposite side of the neck? Would they even interfere with playability (they are raised after all, are they?)
I wonder what it would look like to have them on both sides of the neck...
