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 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 How about they attempt to make one decent guitar instead of 6 pieces of fire wood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I only had to play an instrument for one song and then a roadie would stagger away with it, I'd manage somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hubrad Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 '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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solo4652 Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's working! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skankdelvar Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I've seen a few of these floating around - mostly retailers putting them in the window for a bit of p'zazz. Or pfooey... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] 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 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
