I think this is the first time I've seen Chankgeez stumped by an obscure guitar/bass. :lol:

I have absolutely no idea what it is either.

:lol: Thanks, Colin.

Yeah, I watched that vid a few more times and it seems the bass may not be quite as early as I though. It could be anywhere from '60s to '90s. I really just don't know. Now, I'm thinking that bridge may be original. Which would date the bass to sometime in the '70s at the earliest. :idk:
(Interestingly enough, you can get a better look at the bass with the sound turned off. :D)

Maybe it is some kind of bitza put together by someone in a big name guitar factory. That kind of thing used to happen at the maton factory back in the day when Bill May ran the show. Or maybe some companies one off prototype that never went into production. It is tough to tell watching the video. The video is kinda crazy. Fits the song well though.
