A fanned fret bass/guitar hybrid...to simultaneously play bass and guitar parts?

It's a batar. For those folks who play a six string bass and want to quit kidding themselves (myself included).

Looks fanned alright, but it also seems to have a twisted neck, like on those torzal twist basses. Or is that just me?
