A couple of exotic instruments in the hands of a great bass player...



This one is a mystery as I thought the "Frankenstein" bass was a Fender-necked hybrid, but this one has a distinct "ThunderBird" headstock and "similar" pencil pups to the "Lightning" bass in the above video... is this a PC bass too...?

Any video that features Stigge Pedersen from DAD should be good for an exotic (two string) bass

There isn't much of him, but after the 7:00 point, you'll find Squire and the three-neck.

Lots of still shots, but a few live clips of more than one Tractor.  Looks like a Sunburst version in one clip.

Looks like a Vigier of some sort:
