Very cool! I've been checking those out online.
Regular stick? Meh
N/S Stick? HECK YEAH!
What is the tuning?
Did you buy it new? Or had it been touched by someone else before you?
If new, how long from order to dispatch?
Looks like Steve Vai is getting into the Headless game... And half fretless game... and everything else game...
Subtle, understated, I like it
Headless 27" scale travel bass is progressing, I doubt you'll see much natural wood in the end...
It has taken 3 years to get it this far and a good bit still to do...

- Shaping headstock to remove almost everything (truss access will be above headpiece), might leave enough to be hangable
- Body is currently 3 parts (top, middle back) that still need to be glued together and shaped to uniformity
- finish control cavity (routed in back/middle, but top needs to be thinned enough for shafts to make it through) and pickup cavity (still a little tight)
- Determine any/all "comfort" contours once body is glued.
- Epoxy body with enough dazzle that @JIO will notice me!
- Nova Headless System by @Passini
- Single Nordy Zen Blade (bridge wind)
- Volume P/P for series/parallel switch
- No tone control
- 24 fret 27" neck sourced from Ebay

No reason not to! Heck, thanks to Strandberg and Ibanez, I think there are more factory-produced, high quality headless basses out there than ever!
This is heading my way from the UK. It's already made
it's way to the US...
80's Washburn B-20 Headless.

Amazing bass!
Not seeing the point of your comment.
Never seen one before. NBD thread required with better pics and details if you have them.
