But come to think of it ... :-X ... it looks a little like a Wal, ja, like something der Engländer would do ...
Yeah, ............. and a blind man running for a bus wouldn't really spot the join on the top horn. :-\
I give him credit for the idea. If execution was a little more gifted it would have still been an ugly bass but endearingly so. Wals are ugly but they are also cute.
I wouldn't consider this a Gibson, period.
Wow, talk about polishing a turd...
I think that's what he made the upper horn from......... :rolleyes:
Question is whether it's a Fender with a modified body, a Gibby frankenbass'd into a Fender, or a $99 kludge.
Or all of the above.
