Needs a whammy bar and locking nut.

Who exactly was this supposed to appeal to? The traditionalist will think it’s absolutely horrible, the vintage mod crowd will feel the same and the metal crowd will undoubtedly hate it as well. This ain’t even like the travesty that is pineapple pizza, this is like if you put chocolate and onions together.

I mean, Jackson did come out with this a while back:
At least it has a Floyd.

Nonsense you can bring the low end thunder while doing some sick whammy bar tricks that will probably get lost in the mix anyway.I can't tell whether this is a joke or you didn't notice it was a bass

Feel like this should be on the “ Time for some guitar jokes” thread.

BTW, the "Rickencision" name is mine. Jackson is calling it the X Series Concert Bass.

Jackson Guitars has announced a plethora of new instruments, but one has stood out for us the most. The X Series Concert Bass CBXNT DX IV seems to be an amalgamation of several vintage basses.

The one person I know with a similarly equipped Pilot bass has said it isn't especially useful on bass.

I can imagine the nut getting absolutely wrecked if you used the bar heavily. They didn’t make a locking nut mechanism for the bass Kahlers so the constant friction in the slots would be like taking an angle grinder to them. I figured a fretless would do what the Kahler can but way more musical.
