If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Ouch, that string action looks painful.
I don't see spike's on the back, so as long as you played finger style, standing up, with your right elbow sort of extended out so you don't get spiked... it should be doable.

The spikes on your sleeves need to be long enough to keep you safe from the spikes on the bass ;D.

"How would you even play it?"

Painstakingly. Where there is a will, there is a way.
