This company makes one bass. It's a neck through mahogany bass with two humbuckers. The owner of this company, one Ian,  owns a couple of EBs and Thunderbirds: A '64, '65 and a '97 and he used to have a Bicentennial. His aim for this bass is to make a grat and modern, but T-bird sounding bass without neck heaviness. And of course it has LP looks.

I met these guys at the Messe and I think they do a great job!

What I see on MySpace looks a lot like those Greco Zemaitis basses. Which are pretty cool.

As seen in this picture for instance with "The Answer" bass player sporting a Greco/Zemaitis bass.

I understood you didn't meant the metal tops.

You are right:
Both are black, LP style, kinda similar bridge and a large 'fake' (?) binding at the body.
