Looks like a custom-made King. They have custom scroll and you can get a black bass with white pinstriping, which i THINK is what I'm seeing in the video.

I'd say a slap king with custom scroll. They have a "jet black with white trim".

Glad to help out, I'm new to the scene but I've been doing so much research and King's are gorgeous basses, aesthetically at least, I have no experience playing one. The sound from his bass though is great in that video. Try poking around for some fanfaire on the band, or perhaps message them on myspace to get a definite answer. And yes, the forums have some great people, I've received a lot of help.

Cheers!
