I’d actually like that if it didn’t look like the inside of a toilet bowl after someone forgot to flush (for over a decade).

I think that bass reeks of nicotine so much, you get terminal lungcancer just from looking at it in person.

Looks like the Fender Custom shop drew some inspiration from the dark nicotine neck and single pickup! :D

I read somewhere that this was adapted for a little person (suffering from dwarfism) so they could play their favourite guitar easier...which make's it a little more acceptable.

so my friend (ex) has dwarfism and the first thing they always tell me is "i want to play more guitar but there's just nothing out there for me" i do have a shortscale flying V they love but even then, they say it's still a challenge when they try playing something like a mustang.
