Not a complete bass yet, but it will be once the dual Darkstars and Status Graphite J neck get added to the mix :p

i've never played anything with that many strings, it doesn't like it would be very comfortable to play...Looks pretty though

Think of it as a doubleneck guitar/bass, with the two necks glued together side by side, and you have the best picture of what it's like. String spacing is very narrow (maybe 15mm), making chords fairly easy to play. The 5-octave range means you're playing mostly in a baritone range, with the ability to wander either down to 5-string bass territory, or up to the top of the guitar's range (the high string is half a step below a guitar's E string) when the music calls for it.

It's also good for tapping, much like a Chapman Stick.
