I'm guessing that JDbassplayer has the best inside knowledge on that question,
Chris, and I'm strongly inclined to concur with you as the evidence seems to stand at the moment .All these bass' are likely to have the same sound performance and build quality although some probably have more significant mechanical shortcomings than others. This is a bit crazy given that if as a manufacturer, you've developed good mechanical keywork designs......then why continue with the designs with shortcomings. These keywork differences do not justify the marketing price differences aside from that fact that one accepts paying more for something that actually works.

Like I said.... These differing keyworks must be the manufacturer's response to market demands . Thomann want something that looks distinctive, and knowing what they're doing, commission a nice bit of keywork design . Gear4music are clueless and just want something cheap and likewise distinctive to their label . The only difference between their Rosedale and Odessey appears to be an extra rod guide and a joint locking plata which you get for only an extra 700€ ....but still no conventional low D closing mechanism.
