They're about $2300. Here's the price list from their myspace page:

I'm getting an all aluminum bass (body and neck), like this one:

except left handed.

They're catching on in the noisy rock scene, bands like Jesus Lizard, Melvins, and Isis are playing them. Our guitar player already got his and it's amazing. The neck profile is ridiculously thin. I'll report more once I get it. Kevin, the guy who owns/runs EGC is a good dude too.
