Wow. Good luck sorting the intonation on that...

Bloody hell. Somebody has [i]no idea at all[/i] about instruments...

[BassBus]

A short scale, six string piccolo bass

[yorick]

The only good thing about that is the lead.............

That's what happens if you carry a guitar and a bass in one of those double cases...

Tempted to ask the seller if the cable is a guitar cable, or a bass cable? also, nice neck-pocket / pick-up alignment.... actually why I am even bothering to type that, sooo much wrong...

You know, if someone took the time to do it properly, that'd actually be a pretty cool instrument.

Is it vintage, or rare, or both?

[ras52]

Rare - the opposite of well-done.

Maybe - but it'd really be down to the electronics - I'd imagine many 4 string P & J pickups would be pretty lame as 6 string pickups, especially those with regular bridges (with very little string spacing adjustability - not that you'd want to have to adjust string spacing to get the pickups to work right!).
