What the hell is this?

It's an Atlansia. Never heard of them, and never seen anything like it. They want $4800 for it. I think it's a horrible monstrosity. What do you guys think?

 

[Gary Blanchard]

I think you called it about right.

 

[Coralkong]

what is that thing?

 

[Tralfaz]

I think it's some sort of Klingon weapon. Not sure how it works, though.

It's a builder trying too hard to be different is what it is. The pickup system (if that is what it is...) looks quite unique (for lack of a better term).

Actually, it looks like it is just three P bass setups with what looks like individual switches for each coil.

Not sure about the four buttons on top.

It looks like the controller for Romulan Guitar Hero.

What is it with the upper horn on some of these basses? (or whatever that is). Are they trying to compensate for something?

Actually, I think so.

If i understand it correctly, Having the strap button there balances things out and compensates for the weight and position of the neck and headstock relative to the back end of the guitar.

If I didn't love you and respect you so damn much, I'd give you negative reputation points for the Jar Jar Binks reference. Nothing is worse than that fucking guy, not even that fucked over unholy abomination of a bass that started this thread off. Nothing

Same. I am sure it is far to complicated for me though.

At least it's not a banjo.
