As Pogo would say, it's all very scientifiwockle.

This guy has been around for years, and yet his idea hasn't caught on. It's a solution to something that's really not a problem. Most players don't think of themselves as having to adapt to the bass.

Xavier Padilla, LOL (he's quoted under "what they're saying"). He used to post once every few months on the old TBL mailing list. And every post was always the same, he would declare his Little to be the ultimate bass neck solution.

First I've heard of such a thing :o
After hot rodding a couple of basses when I was younger, I've turned in to one of those guys who believes that YOU should adapt to the instrument for the most part. I'm not above changing a few things to fit or work a little better but I'm not one of those guys who puts a Precision neck on an EB2 because I like the feel of the Fender I'm used too, but I like the style or the sound of the EB2. Instead, I would buy the EB2 and get used to the neck.

I would have a tough time jumping in to a twisted neck bass  that was supposed to correct some problem I didn't even know I had. ???
I can imagine taking it in for a set up and having your tech call you up and tell you " boy it was tough , but I got your neck straightened out". :o ;D

Can't imagine leveling those frets when they get a little notched.

$2700? Thanks but no thanks ....

$2700...? would they pay me that much to trial it...? deal...!

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...

I guess you could get used to such a twist and then a regular neck will feel awkward to you. But that is not say that the concept actually meets a purpose.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...

I'm waiting for the Dingwall-style fanned fret version.

What the Hell, might as well set the hoop on fire while we're at it...
