Fender Reverse Jaguar

Won't the lack of a cut away on the lower side make upper frets harder to access ? And won't the very short upper side "cut-away" make the strap pin location inconvenient, thus making lower frets a bit of a long reach ?

Looks different, and sort of retro-cool...but at a first glance more uncomfortable than the Ibanez Iceman. I wonder about neck dive as well.
 
The bridge looks like a Badass II, hmmmm. Also, this is probably the first Fender bass with MM humbuckers. I'm thinking I'd wanna get one, then get a hold of SGD Luthierie's Wal-clone pickups and preamp once they're out and throw them in there, since it looks like the pickup locations are closer to the bridge than the double-bucker Music Man basses.
