Create (photoshop) the most ridiculous bass possible.

I've posted a few ridiculous basses I created in various threads like this one

And that one:

So I'd like to see the outlandish things you guys will create (or at least show if you've seen them somewhere).
 
These are not meant to be ridiculous, I just photoshopped them to visualise ideas i had about making constructions from parts basses that were for sale.

Gibner, Hohner B2A body combined with EB0 body, DiMarzio Model One + X2N Bass pickups.

HofnerClub3-Bb_zpsopa5zydm.gif

Idea about a affordable 3 pickup Club bass.

Epiphone%20Rumblekat%20Blue%20Royale%20III_zpsrwajqm28.gif

The same idea with a Rumblekat

Used a photo of a longscale Verythin bass to stretch out the neck of my Cougar bass to the same length. In other words, how would the Cougar appear if I converted it to a long scale bass.

That cougar will never intonate. :D

You have great creativity! These look great. Could that first one be the best bass for metal? :wideyed:

I would so buy that headless SG bass. Plus you solved the neckdive!

Maybe not the way it is on the photoshop. If you put another bridge on it, for example a Warwick, it might.

You wouldn't need the tailpiece.

Thanks for the compliment. Your not the first one to make a comment like that.
I guess you could play reggae on it too.:cigar:

I just like the SG shape more than "The Jack" by Hohner. That's what motivated me, not a neck dive issue. First reason for the photoshop was a lefthand incomplete Hohner B2A for sale. But making it like it is on the photoshop, would lead to a lot of expenses. And I have enough to restore as it is.
