I wonder what a Jimi Hendrix signature bass might look like.
With this one you can gut a winder range of game, from small deer to water buffalo. [ I like it ]Even worse, that bass is really a V with extra nipples!
I'd rather see a full-on Razorback!

Les Paul was at least intimately involved with the recording model.Except the Les Paul guitar (And bass) aren't actually Les Paul designs. They're more like tributes to a great guitarist and utilize some clever (for their time... long loooooong ago) designs.
This FTW.Then there's the Rickenbacker Glenn Frey bass, for guy known for neither playing bass nor Rickenbackers. (I'd love to have one, though).
