Weird Beautiful fretless paddle bass

[Basvarken]

The Ebay auction just ended a few minutes ago.
I've been watching this bass for a week, hoping that nobody would see it

But in the dying seconds the bidding got beserk, so I backed off

But wow, what an intriguing bass!

That is pretty cool. It has a definite '50s appliance feel to it.

[Aussie Mark]

Why does it need a case, when it already has a carry handle built in? LOL

+1 on looking cool though

[hieronymous]

My first thought was Atlansia.

[nofi]

my first thought was vacuum cleaner.

[Dave W]

With that grip, my first thought was Ibanez Jem prototype. 

Too bad you didn't get it, it would be a great conversation piece no matter how it plays. But I would have dropped out of that bidding war too.

what do you think the pickups are?

[Basvarken]

I have no idea. But they look intriguing

[Chris P.]

I really love it!!

Can you fill in spare fuel with it? Sure looks the part. But I do like its retro-Jetsons esthetics.

[SKATE RAT]

whoa. cool.

US$1,583 ?!

I don't know why, but it reminds me of my truck, except you could have bought two of my trucks for what it went for. So in conclusion, it's not a truck, but if it were, it would be less expensive.

It's almost like an upright bass. Does it have an endpin?
