Haha, is that a Conklin? Gotta love the Pacman-themed knobs and inlay.

That is a sweet bass! That is indeed Jean Baudin's Conklin of Nuclear Rabbit. That guy proves that extended range basses can be tastefully used in a hard rock band. Most of their songs are structured around a groove that Jean comes up with. Very cool stuff.

The extended range instruments are cool, but I think a few of us should take the back-to-basics approach and build a couple of cardboard box standups with two strings (and a special three-string for Paul). No fretboards as wide as a mud and snow tire or 17 string customs, just basic string vibration on wood or wood-like substances!

Mmmm...vibration on my wood:).
