More super secret spy stuff!!!
I guess that since all those aliens decided to go home, the mad scientists at Groom Lake have been bored, and goofing off a bit, because here's more stuff that has been smuggled out...

...like a really short scale length, maybe a piccolo bass???  
Weird electronics setup too...the pickups appear to be humbuckers and they're in odd locations...just two volume controls and a pickup selector switch instead of a blend...
...what is going on here?????

This is either some weird retrofit or a prototype that didn't quite fly. |

It's here in the shop, I can see it, and it appears to be in quite good health....

Please navigate to the #6045 thread and observe the more advanced pics and you should recognize a stark contrast in the differences I've previously mentioned.  |

The boys at Roscoe are adhering to the Americans With Disabilities act and are producing basses for my height challenged brethren.
Now if they'll just produce a Roscoe for us four legged types, I'll reconsider our "March on Greensboro for Instrument Equality"
God Bless, Ray
