I dunno some things are no-brainers. I know I don't wanna jump out of a perfectly good airplane. I can say with relative certainty I don't wanna play sumpin looks like it's made of play-dough. If someone offered you a test drive in a car with mis-matched wheels, looking all bent, wouldn't you pass?

As I said before, I wouldn't want to eat a turd sandwich despite the possibilities.
One thing I know for sure is I wouldnt want to try that, wouldnt know what to do with the extra 7 strings in the first place, and if they can't be tuned correctly its a no brainer that it will only bring frustration, so quite frankly, and IMHO, I would indeed not play this bass.
Dear Lord, what is that?
It looks like someone tried to play "Buffalo Bill" and alas, we now know where the rest of Star Jones is..................Gross.

i think there is a new wish-bashing thread each week. its kinda redic. i mean, sure, maybe they are heinous instruments, maybe they are not.
however, he is a craftsman. I think that we as artists could show some respect. he is HAPPY. dont rain on his parade by being PERPETUALLY immature. cant we grow up a little? sorry, but it really bothers me to see someone constantly bullied. i think its great that he has fun doing what he does.

It's ok, that bass probably hates you...
I really don't get it, do you really need any more than 6 strings at the most??? Honestly, I get by on 4 just fine.
While that instrument is hideous, as is most any other Wish that I've seen, I believe I've found one I like.

huh...i spoke to the owner of this bass on a contrabass forum and he told me it plays beautifully with the intonation dead on. I believe he had sound clips on the site too.....can't remember which one though.....
But that doesn't change the fact that it's butt ugly
edit: i am refering to the 11 stringer

i bet the neck is terrible. i played a 7 string fretless wih once and it felt like one of those oversized red whiffle ball bats.
