I put this bass together out of parts from a bass I picked up from a board member here - thanks Alex - and some stuff I had lying around. The band I primarily play in usually tours with 3 guitar players and there are lots of guitar harmonies. But on our most recent tour, we were one guitar player down. I thought maybe this would fill in the blanks on some of the songs where the two guitarists were harmonizing and there was no rhythm guitar. Well.... IT WORKED! It fit perfectly on about a half dozen songs that we had in the list. I usually played it on about 3 or 4 songs per night depending on the set list. With just a hint of overdrive, it sounds like Jon Lord's organ. Ha. I'm a finger only player so my finger tips and finger nails were a little worse for wear at the end of the tour but the callouses are hard as diamonds now. And let me tell ya, I've never had to talk about gear so much as I did playing this thing. After every show I was inundated with broken English conversations about how cool it was. (Unfortunately..... those were mostly dudes. Haha...) Anyway, lots of fun to play and I'm really glad it worked out so well. I'm definitely going to try to find more places to implement this beast.
