Stunning new PRS hollow body short scale bass.

Just stunning.

Isn't the black plastic MM Pickup just too bland for it though, like a supercar with fluffy dice?

It's a real looker.
Dread to think how much it'll cost.

Don't worry, no UK dealers listed in the link!

WOWWW!!

I've got wood.

Love the look of this. I wonder just how far out of my price range it is.

I'm pretty sure very. Limited to 6? 20th Anniversary? PRS? You're looking at new car prices I reckon.

Ooooh! That's a work of art, that is.

I was talking about high-end PRSes with a guitarist on another forum yesterday - who's considering dropping £3500 on one. What I said applies here - if I had something like that, I'd be terrified to take it out of its case, never mind gig it.

I'll stick with my cheap, bashed-up tat. For the sake of my sanity.

cosmetically it does not work for me.
Beautiful wood top but the body , headstock & pickup do not look quite right together.
It looks like it is bits of lots of basses stuck together.

just my personal thought .......

[Dazed]

Yeah that is stunning, but like Chris said, it doesn't in my eyes all fit together.

Nice paint job, nice wood - to me it just looks like a carved top PRS guitar with a baritone length neck. With two less tuners than normal of course.

You're probably right. Oh well.

Proof that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Gorgeous bit of top wood and nicely stained, but IMO the rest of the bass looks horrible. The sides look like cheap plywood and what is the deal with the back and neck not matching the top? It's not a cheap bass, so it can hardly be a cost-cutting exercise. Also the nasty Schaller 2000 bridge. One of the worst bridges I have ever come across and this is a feature that would make me automatically reject and bass with it on.

I'm glad to see that they're doing a bit more in the bass dept, if all this leads to a more extensive range, I'm all for it.
