So which one do you pronounce first - is it Bass-Bass or Bass-Bass? :D

I would have put the pickup nearer the neck and then it would have sounded more bassy....

But I guess the builder he would put it near the gills which is as close to a neck that a bass has...

Which makes me think that the tail is near the neck and the other neck is near the other tail...

Good lord! this Bass Bass is a complete Ying Yang paradox.. :lol:

OK, the lamest 3 I can come up with:

- The main downside is that you can only play in the key of sea.

- Bet you found that on the 'net....

- Once you played it, you were hooked.
