The most comfortable sit down player ever

Sorry but the non matching screws are a total deal breaker for me. Unfortunately I'm going to have to pass.

i expected to see Anthony Jackson and not that, um , bass. Saw him once at Blues Alley in DC playing with Mike Stern. Table intimately placed next to stage. Stern within a couple feet all night. Almost hit me with his guitar. Anthony had the most amazing bass faces I’ve seen. But Dave Weckl on drums drew my attention, blew me away.

Bass labeled "Cowboys" featuring an earth-toned fireman executing a cowering, baby-faced skinhead. Of note, there are bullet hole fret markers (some randomly placed), deformed feet and opposite-of-proper-perspective sized spurs priced at $999 on FB Marketplace with a link to Victor Litz Music in Gaithersburg, MD. I checked their website and the bass does not seem to appear in their inventory, so someone may have already snapped up this bargain, historically-themed gem...or they don't want to be associated too closely with this trade.

I’ll give the guy kudos for trying. If it made him feel good, good for him. This is why I don’t try though.
Looks like flotsam, jetsam, offcuts from a dinner table and some hardware acting as a string stress testing device.
I kind of wonder if this is intended to be played a-la upright “whilst sitting”, or with or more of a (traditional
) position.The brainchild of an eccentric nutty professor?
I look at this and think “Yes, sitting with this will be rewarding as haemmorhoids”.
I like it! If it had been made for/played by a bassist of Lemmy’s repute it would have kudos.
But the faces…
ANYTHING but faces, tattoos and basses.
the non matching screws theme isn’t even true to itself.
Needs a phillips head, a flat blade and a Robertson all on the same surface
I've seen photos and/or video of many, many bassists and guitarists playing sitting down in the studio, including most if not all of my favourite top-tier players. They almost all stand when playing on stage though.
Anthony Jackson, Anthony Jackson, Anthony Jackson, Anthony Jackson, and Beaver Felton.
The custom string spacing has me sold! And lots of nooks and crannies to hold the melted butter! (Apologies to Thomas' English Muffins)
