| | Registered User | | | | | Hm, never seen that model before, very cool though.
I tried looking up some information on it, but can only find the Hellcat VI - no four string basses seem to come up, was this a one off?

| | | | This wasn't a one-off, but it's a custom, hand-made piece. They will still make them for anybody who can pony up the $, I believe. I also have an 8-string version in black which I've used on Beck recordings and some other stuff here and there.

Man, how to convince the wife that I really need the sound of lipstick pickups when I have 10 basses already? Most of them were $350 or less, but try telling her that. :P
