I'm no octopus, so don't think I'll bother.

[BigBeefChief]

Tennessee are like, the best brand ever!

[bumnote]

I have enough bother with just 1 neck and 4 strings

You wont be worried about a lightweight rig if you can carry that

complete and utter waste of someones time and resources.

Ten bids so far!

It can't be physically possible to play the lowest neck, surely, unless the strap was so short that you couldn't see over the top of the body?

[joe_bass]

How about they attempt to make one decent guitar instead of 6 pieces of fire wood?

I agree 6 necked guitars are absolutely STUPID... 5 necks, now that's a different matter!

I aspire to have more neck than that!

If I only had to play an instrument for one song and then a roadie would stagger away with it, I'd manage somehow.

'Because we can'!

I particularly like the description - 'Forth Neck Is 4 String Bass Neck
Two Large Bass Pick Ups Provide Great 5 String Sound' .. Wonder if they sell those pickups as aftermarket fit?

Actually, we had one of these (different name but same everything else) in the shop for a short while, left by a rep as a Showpiece. Physical impossibility and they missed several possibilities given 6 necks to go for.

Ho hum!

I particularly liked this in the ad; "Item does not come with a hard case"!

Excuse my naivety, but does this thing really exist? or is it a photoshop creation?

It's quite likely an advertising gimmick for his shop, that mostly sells less, er, 'exotic' instruments.

It's working!

[skankdelvar]

I've seen a few of these floating around - mostly retailers putting them in the window for a bit of p'zazz.

Or pfooey...

[Rich]

Three of those necks are totally redundant anyway. It's got to be just a shop window marketing exercise. Load of old knob.

Now this is more like it...

hernia, bad back, osteopath etc


I've got deja vu.


Have I said that before?

IIRC wasn't that bass owned by Roger Newell who used to edit/write for 'Bassist' magazine and who was in Rick Wakeman's touring group?

[KevB]

The original might have been from Newell but I think the one in that photo might be the copy that Chris had made, maybe the original was getting a bit past it.
