Crazy basses never say die
Born to live on a permanent high
Flying high above the world below
They'd better come down soon or everyone will know, just why
Nobody's gonna change them, change them
They've gone over the top
Nobody's gonna tame them, tame them
They're never gonna stop

Those are incredible! Check that crazy single string, favourite would have to be the punk rock classic though

Absolutely agree.

If you asked Ash to make a copy for you, he'd probably kick you down to Invercargill then kick you back up to Auckland again, though. So much metal strapping holding it together...

You could protect yourself with the chain strap though.

Punk Rock Classic must be a tone-monster :lol: Who needs the 14th fret anyway?

Well since it's a punk guitar, who needs the D and G strings?

Hurdy Gurdy.... some how... and I'm not entirely certain how mind you, an instrument that sounds like someone has shoved a nest of angry hornets into a goose with a kazoo bill and is randomly slapping the poor creature with an accordion.... Sounds amazing.

I loved the two string Zebra... I sent the guy an email, and he got back to me pretty quickly. He's not making anymore... and just offloading current instruments. So cool...
Larrivee 00 Acoustic. FAV Strat for electric. Ibanez SDGR5 for bass. Push for Ableton. When not doing that, 3D CAD for tunnels...
