Hey Dave, if you you are interested in jazz standards played on eletric bass, check out Dario Deidda from Italy:

I can see the ergonomic advantages of the twisted neck, but good luck getting a fret dress or refret; I've done guitar repair and I am a Goldsmith who's king hell with a file, and the prospect of levelling that fretwork out is a nightmare...Tony

I've seen Lenny Breau, Jim Hall, Tal Farlow, Joe Diorio, James Burton, Albert Lee, Bruce Cockburn, Steve Vai, Jeff Healey, Doc Watson, Jerry Garcia, Frank Reckard, and countless others on plain old guitars. They all seemed to be doing all right.

Does the world really need this?

PS.

Oh, yeah, and on the bass side - Prakash John, Marcus Miller, Jaco, Victor Wooten, Francis Rocco Prestia, Jerry Scheff, Pops Popwell...same story.

Not that I denigrate technological advancement. But sometimes I shake my head. I'd be happy if someone could convince me that this is a good idea, though...always try to keep an open mind.
