Wonder about the heat generated by the power amp and wood, though. Maybe a bass made entirely of carbon fiber or graphite to allay any heat-related concerns? Imagine if the Spinal Tap bassist had a wood bass with a hefty SVT-like amp section built into the bass. Then he'd spontaneously combust, just like the drummer.
Well, maybe a little less rapid than spontaneously....
Always thinkin'. Quote:

I think an NYC wishbass with Sad pups would be well worth the 3500 dollars they'd undoubtedly charge.
Did anyone else read the owners manual and realize 3 pages in that it there was no joke coming? April fools on myself.
