Birthday-coming-up Bass Porn
So, y’know, if anybody sees one of these lying around in a right-handed configuration and feels like parting with an obscene amount of cash (I couldn’t find the price on the site, but trust me, obscene probably describes just about every aspect of this bass pretty well), there you go. I’ll solo in your honor for at least half-an-hour.
Which, if you think about, is pretty obscene as well.
Also, at what point does an extended-range bass guitar stop being a bass guitar and become a modified harp?

I couldn’t block out the thought that the guitar is maybe bigger than the music that gets played on it!

Is that a Warr guitar like the one Trey Gunn used to play in King Crimson?

@ Ricky - it’s entirely possible.
@ Josh - Nope, this appears to be a high-end custom model. The Warr is designed for more tapping-oriented playing, too.

Go, Billy Bob Thornton in “Sling Blade” - play that freaky bass with three times too many strings!

What would BBT’s character from “Sling Blade” play when given such an opportunity?
The mind boggles.
