It's the first time I've ever seen one. I'd like to hear what Adam (dorkrockrecords) has to say about it, as he didn't host the auction. Did he buy it?
I had heard that Semie tried to get bass models to work with aluminum due to weight, but the necks just crumpled. I'm guessing this Bass must weigh a good bit, maybe not over 20 pounds but more like 13-15.
Also, There's another thread about this. I thought I'd link it - And link this to that thread - Just for future reference:
