I see his Sklar, and raise him a Nathan (plus brother James and Dave Boonshoft).

Those mostly look awesome. Something not right about the look of that bridge though.... an unfortunate combination of large but cheap looking, and kind of 'unbalanced looking' with the rest of the instrument. They need to fix that on a $3,000 bass IMO.

Might be an optical illusion, but the bridge on the bass to the left in the pic, looks crooked to my eye...

I think that is a trick of the eye due to the angle of the picture and the body shape.

It looks crooked to me also, but I would agree with you. The Alembic Stanly Clarke-style basses always look all messed up to me, as if they lower horn extended out further than the top horn. I could never get over that optical illusion no matter how hard I tried. Some of the Roscoe guitars have an illusion going on with them that they are just all jacked up in my eyes also, and I can't make myself like them even though I know they are just fine.

+1 Those Roscoe models with the slanted pickups look like some sort of Dahli sculpture or something.

Wow! For the first time PRS has produced a great looking bass!

Now they'll actually sell some...

It's never truly a Sklar-off unless you get him to flick you off or he gets you to flick him off.

Don't worry - he was "flicked off" in triplicate prior to the photo.
