That would be quite the Who-thing to do, wouldn't it?

Shamray is in Moscow and builds custom stuff.  I have only seen them in pictures but they always look nice.  The proof is in the playing, listening and holding, though.  I would be very careful about that particular bass as the headstock looks to be quite fragile.  I would estimate 7-8 from the nut to the farthest tuning peg and it gets pretty narrow out there.
