Tippety tappety doodley noodle. I'm awesome.

Whatever this is, it's not a bass. It should be in the harp section.

"Prat Bass".

Insufficiently extreme. If you're going to do it, do it properly.

Instead of 31" - 36" scale lengths they should make a 28" - 42" fan. With jumbo frets, of course.

A proper 240V pre-amp should be installed ... none of yer namby-pamby 18V nonsense, this is a MAN's bass.

Use perspex or re-cycled Fairy Liquid bottles for the body.

LEDs, there should be lots of LEDs. Everywhere.

And valves. Good kit always has valves. 2 x ECC83 or something, preferably Mullards.

Maybe shape the headstock like a huge bottle opener.

And don't forget the Kahler tremolo system.

That's not the asking price, it's the cost to replace the strings...

Oscar Prat is an incredible luthier from my country that lives and works in the States:

Prat is a common surname in Catalonia that can't be translated, but no doubt could be a bizarre name in the international market :-(

Oddly enough it didn't appear to sell....but ever the optimist....He's re-listed it bless him!!!!

[MacDaddy]

in the 'you might also like' section at the top, is a O/S OB50 BLACK 4 STRING ELECTRIC BASS ... with a buy it now price of £81.68

Why do they think that would interest someone in the market for a £7.5k 12 string bass?
