Here is the NYT piece in PDF, as I am pretty sure the link will be behind a paywall. I linked to it regardless, because I think they may allow a few free articles, so maybe try the link first.
Invalid Link Removed

To bypass most paywalls, wait until the "you can't read this without paying first" message pops up and blocks your screen. Then...

• Right click anywhere on the page and choose "inspect" from the drop down menu that appears
• This splits your screen and will show a bunch of programming gibberish on the right
• Press and hold "Ctrl + Shift + P" (don't press the + key. Think of it like a comma) and release
• This will open a Command Search Bar at the top of the gibberish page on the right
• Type in Java and that should trigger a drop down menu of options that include Java
• Left click on "Disable Java Script" and hit "Enter"
• Refresh the page on the left and close the page on the right. Paywall breached

I'm running Windows 7 and Chrome. YMMV with different OS and browser combinations

Looks like an 8 string judging by the tuning pegs.

I'm guessing it's a modded hybrid and that there's a TB thread somewhere on it

I looks like half bass, half guitar…?

Lotsa knobs and strange pickup placement......

That might have been an earlier lab experiment. Apparently he had Vox(no stranger to wack body shapes)build it for him, and then later had these made….Klaus Voorman 8-string bass/guitar

Extended range before extended range.

Thanks for that. Now I've got to find the "A Side Man's Journey" DVD.......

drummer Jerry Allison has passed away, he started with Buddy Holly in Lubbock, Texas in the mid-1950s, went on to Hollywood and then Nashville where he played on big records by people like Eddie Cochran, the Everly Brothers, Lee Dresser, and many more you never heard of. He had his own hit under the name “Ivan,” called Real Wild Child later covered by Jerry Lee Lewis and Iggy Pop.
