Prime-vibe (seasons your bass?)

Not sure if this is the right place or not....moderators feel free to move if it's not.

Anyway came across this. While it's not a ton of money just wondering if there is any validity to the claim or if this is snake oil.

I'm thinking I could just put my headphones on my bass and get the same affect.

See the link below:

I think it's snake oil it might work if you leave it on for thirty years and whenever they have music in the background run and run fast

I suspect as much. It looks like a cd player (allegedly you put cds in with different key signatures to "season" your instrument to those frequencies). The "pods" look like mini speakers (similar to headphones).

I can see it working to help open up the tone of brand new acoustic instruments, but electrics? Snake oil in that regard.
