Awesome work, man! This is an amazing idea, and extra-geeky being the FLCL bass. So cool :D

Awesome! That's fantastic Chris! Does she hold her tune? Bass strings are hard enough on the fingers as it is, without having studs to worry about!

Unfortunately no, its more for looks than performance, putting full tension on it wanted to rip everything apart.
