Then there's the rumor (disputed by some) that Jaco Pastorius would eat greasy chicken before playing and get the strings greasy on purpose.

Maybe a Gibson/KFC tie-in would reduce the cost. A likeness of the Colonel on the pickguard. I'm sure our veggie friends will go for that.
Steven Stills said the exact same thing about eating fried chicken and playing bass.

The Colonelbird, playable only with a KFC bucket on your head.

It would probably be a single cut model though (rather than a bird)...

Or the Full Bird Colonel model.

I'll bet his playing is tasty.
