    File this under "out there".

    I subscribe to a bass player's YT channel and this vid popped up on my phone start screen just now.

    The Bender Collision.

    There's also a Bender Distorocaster guitar.

    Very Dali-esque.

    Might be nice for Gumby but I wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot pole.

    If I were in a band called "Killer Clowns" - I'd definitely consider playing one. But I'm not, so I won't! :) I'm glad it exists though.

    This seems to be the most "far out" example of the builder's work:

    Brian Eastwood Guitars

    There are some cool looking guitars on his page and I don't even like the swinging sixties stuff like this.

    It’s interesting. Visually at least it Reminds me of a mix of these two. B20ABAF2-FE58-4C87-9D16-C8C4C842B3CD.jpeg

    Looks like the upper horn (worm) should have on an army helmet.

    That top horn could possibly double as a mic stand!

    I like almost every bass shape I've run across...I just can't like this one. Props to you if you do.
