Haven't seen that before...a good deal too.

Interesting indeed- looks like it has a reverse headstock, Excel/Epic electronics and that it's using a standard MXY pickup at the bridge, but a P set at the neck.

Yea, it is. I wonder if it's an employee project.

Interestingly, the Hamer guitar in the ad has Alembic pickups and electronics and bridge; and according to the ad was Alembicized by Alembic.

Hmm, it is a reverse headstock, or did they take a right handed bass, and flip all the hardware upside down so that they didn't have to cut new slots. That would be my suspicion regarding the unusual hardware.

Well the taipiece has new slots in it.
