I can imagine the band’s fans whispering: “Avoid that bassist, he has crabs!”

That bass must come with an instruction manual:

How To Change Strings (pages 10 to 135)
Part 1: Make sure you are not allergic to seafood and you have got your tetanus shots
Part 2: Gently slide the claw to the right. Mind your nipples.


How To Tune Your Bass
Part 1: Insert your fingers in the, hmm :thinking:

Volume, Tone And Pickup Knobs

This one is kind of cool but a little too over the top. Still, pure Schecter.

I saw that and I wondered what it would like like in playing position. So many of the weird designs look good on a stand by not in playing position. I rotated this bass CW to put the sea creature in swimming/playing position, and like it more.

I love this!

I REALLY love the loose clothing and untied long hair close to spinning machinery, as well as the fully engaged safety squints.
