How does it feel? It hurts my eyes but it's intriguing! 

I gig the Torzal yesterday 2.5hr gig. 

The sound eng was happy with the powerful tone (no twisted notes..ha)

I sing so have to rely on knowing position...forgot it was different...any errors would have been made with any bass

As mentioned before going from 30" to this 34" scale..felt identical

End of gig no wrist ace...and surprisingly no splits in plucking fingers. Thingking about this afterwards...I think the way it makes you flatten your hand, makes you stroke or pluck softly

 

The only issue - the action was to low !

Wow that’s different, I’m having trouble seeing how the strings follow the fretboard, probably easier to see when you’re playing it 

You cant see the upper part of the fretboard !!

Looks amazing and bonkers! How does it help with the wrist strain? 

Sorry if it's obvious but my eyes are straining trying to work it out 😄

See my gig report

This is the spec' which shows the twist

Would love to try one - unfortunately like many of these things, it is very hard to try anything anywhere, at least anything that isn't a fender so chances are it wouldn't happen - it would also have to be a second hand one of the right spec so no real chance of coming across any of them.
