Maybe the guy with the altered-states Elan should buy this. The Strat jack is a step in that direction already!

He does mention April 1 as the closing date ...

Wow, that is weird. I called up the listing and was amused by one of the questions to the seller:

'hi mates, i have seen headless basses before, but this is the first bassless head, is this the way forward? regards joe.. 29-Mar-07

A:? yes !...steinberger users take note,cheers,pw'

Perhaps I'm missing something here.Is this person offering an entire bass? If so why not show the whole thing? Or is he selling half a head and a drawing? And not a very good drawing at that.

Half a head and maybe a not very good drawing.

Pull the other one ... What's so difficult to understand about that?

Music shop humour ...

Man, I love a short scale basses like that one, because they save weight on my back. I'd buy it if it was a left handed 5-string model. It would sound great with Alembic electronics.

Just turn it over and it will be a lefty.
