If somebody upscaled a Gretsch 6070 to this degree, they'd have to cut a hole in the ceiling.

 

[J Wilson]

It's a 4/4, the smaller ones are easier to live with.

Okay

Anyone know what this is all about?

It's about 9' tall by my estimates.

 

[Supadope]

It's a Gibson.
You could probably get a nice Epiphone for a lot less.

 

[hamertek98]

What's it weigh?
Probably neck heavy...

 

[Iristone]

Is this the "Octobass" of bass guitar?

 

[fhtagn]

It needs a matching stack.

 

[tr4252]

Best gigantic bass for metal?

 

[lowendblues]

Nice, but can you slap it?

The Specials' Horace Panter: “In the '60s, the clever bloke played lead guitar, his best mate was taught rhythm, and the guy who wanted to play guitar, but wasn’t very good, ended up playing bass!”

Ska legends the Specials are back with a triumphant new album, Protest Songs 1924-2012. The great Horace Panter reveals its troubled genesis

Big Bird

 

[scuzzy]

does it come with the JNCO's?

 

[Warpeg]

It kind of reminds me of all the giant guitars (artwork) placed all over the city of Cleveland.

 

[Plucky The Bassist]

does it come with the JNCO's?

Bruhh...seeing those made me wish they were back in style again. They were soooo comfy!!

Okay
I now have some more information from my pal:
"Cannot be played.”

Why?

 

[Isaac_James]

Nice, but can you slap it?

I wouldn't, it might tip over and fall on you.
