    No, I was serious, but would it be an acoustic bass, or with pickups? Sounds like it might be another project for you DB. What pickups? Scale length? Could be an interesting "exclusive" for PBG.
    Cheers,

    It would have to be metal body, 34" scale and possibly with a piezo pup on board..

    Oh, I just new it! ... with a fondness for an "upright resonator bass" I knew there had to be streak of Tex-Mex hiding below the surface there somewhere

    Banjo doesn't interest me, but a reso definitely does. Not that I would have the finances at the moment.

    But the reso would have to be a biscuit bridge, not a spider bridge.

    Completed:
    AST-1FB
    First Act ME276 (resurrected curb-side find)
    ES-5V
    Scratchie lapsteel
    Custom ST-1 12 String
    JBA-4
    TL-1TB
    Scratch Lapsteel
    Meinl DIY Cajon
    Cigar Box lap steel

    Wishing:
    Baritone
    Open D/Standard Double 6 twin neck
