A weird custom build?

I am wondering if anyone here would be interested in building a one-off custom:
4 string, short scale (750mm)
Unlined fretless neck, neck-thru-body or set preferably
Violin body
Single pickup in the classic gibson mudbucker position.
Minimal electronics, just a pickup and volume control
Sort of a modern take on a univox bass I had back in the 70’s
sound interesting to anyone?

Those Univoxes were very cool.

The builders in LC aren’t supposed to solicit business on here. I’d suggest checking a few build threads and messaging anyone who seems to be making what you want. Having said all that you might check in with Jeremy AKA @Freekmagnet. He’s building bodies, necks and pickups.
