Disher Rattlesnake

So who's bought one? This popped up in my Facebook feed today.

Yeah, the color is cool. It could lose the "Join, or Die" cartoon created by Benjamin Franklin in 1754. First off, does that cartoon look like a rattlesnake? Secondly, naming the bass the "rattlesnake" then showing a chopped up rattlesnake... to me, that's confusing brand wise. I read online they are combining history with music ==> "be revolutionary." Seems niche.
Not to mention the control plate.
Other than that, why not use a black humbucker...I'm guessing they think the chrome one matches the control plate and bridge, but if that's the case, they should've used chrome P and J pickups.
