I wish I had cash to blow on every weird bass I see. I have my Uke bass coming and here's a banjo (i've seen these before)

I also want a bass made like a lute, a mandolin, and dammit I challenge someone to make one out of a harmonica.

I can't picture how a Banjo Bass would sound...Maybe it has enough volume to be heard with other accoustic instruments.

It might be hard to find a context where the sound would actually fit. It is very mid-rangy.
