You think the basses are nuts? You've seen the pricetags on those things?

Yeah, I've seen them.
I don't think the guy has ever done a bass other than his.

cool bass. I like the shape. Wouldn't want to play it seated, though.
The workmanship appears top-notch. On one hand, I think the cost is justified by the time put onto the instrument. OTOH, Whether it's justified by its value as a sound-producer or an art object is up to each individual. I imagine there are enough monied collectors out there to result in a few orders. I would certainly never take it on a gig!

I like it... and I give the designer extra credit for thinking outside the box.

I guess they're decorative - same as the last fret on a BassLab.

Humm...
The craftsmanship looks good, but the design looks... "off". I appreciate the creative thinking, but the bass looks like a combination of different ideas, not an integrated design.

Those ARE my initials... 
I really like the bass though. If I had money to burn I would get one. I'm not really digging the headstock though. But if I had 10,000 quid to blow, I'm sure he could change it for me.
