The Galveston version that this ones a copy of, is better thought out. Has regular fretted five string and fretless 4 string. And I think was mahogany body with flame maple top. Main reason I didnt go ahead and get theirs some yrs ago was the weight was around 14 pds. If itd been 12 pds like doublenecks Ive prev owned, would of got one for that fretless and fretted thing along with to process each neck for diff effects voicings.
Ive seen copies of some pretty high end boutique basses thru this ebayers store. Plus some just weird but kewl looking basses. But his prices are a bit too low for me to blind trust qaulities gonna be at least equal to common name brands mid level import lines.
Can someone photoshop the silly 4 neck bass pic in cdef's post onto a octopus so it"ll make sense? Ty. Lol.

Why would you ever WANT a mandolin, a banjo, a bass, and a guitar all on the same instrument? I mean, I can see bass and guitar....but... seriously...what would you do with it besides hang it on your wall, and use it to get laughs at a talent show?
I couldn't find a photo of that bass, so the one I posted above did nicely!
This Krappy bass can't weigh much, and has the advantage of an easily deducible logic:
What about this bass? My friend saw this at a guitar center. I claim victory over your plain doubleneck.
Seriously, why would you NEED this on one instrument?
I win!!
Awwww..my absurd quadneck was just destroyed...You win, prof. BUT I'LL BE BACK!
-cue dramatic music-
Is it cheating if I post that pic of the 12 neck art g**tar?

For all of the double-or-more-neck basses I've seen, I've never actually seen someone play one in a live setting (except for Derek, of course...).
Chris Squire- 19 minutes,29 seconds of triple neck goodness.
Fretted,fretless,and baritone IIRC.
Unlike a double neck bass where both both necks are fretted and the 4 string neck is just redundant Chris' bass is actually useful and cool. Nothing absurd about it.

And for those of you who are defending the absurdity you'll be happy to know that you can also buy the bass in red for $20 less!

actually a couple of years back I almost bid on a Galveston double neck bass. It was a 5-string fretted and 4-string fretless combo.
