Neat idea IF implemented properly.
BUT it uses a danged battery! Infernal electronics in an acoustic bass thread! May as well be a PUP!

I would try stand up comedy, B-Mac ..... But I'm afraid people would laugh at me!
Well, I certainly enjoy your wit and ‘slight touch’ of sarcasm!I would try stand up comedy, B-Mac ..... But I'm afraid people would laugh at me!
I need another number. You can see from the headstock, this old P Bass of mine needs a number.
I've played the poor thing to death! And they won't let me bury it in the P Bass thread!
I wouldn't ask ya, B-Mac ... but the pickups haven't worked in 37 years. I've been playing this Fender acoustically. I even named it "Leo"! Damned thing sounds like a sick cow...

When I am not playing a skull bass I am playing a Fender Kingman with a golden lute baffle to the sound hole...
Oooooo, that looks great!
Was that off the shelf or did lutehole need to modify it? Really looks great with that pickguard!!
[edit] I see it was a ‘John Malay’ custom modified lutehole!!!
