Ok, soooo....this is Takeshi's newest beast...a double-necked guitar/bass combo (of course). What makes this particularly interesting to me is how i failed to find any other listings of such an instrument having been made for mass public. This leads me to believe that ol' Takky has acted as purveyor of some Custom First Act Cult. I DID, however find a LINK on the manufacturer's website talking about a new doubleneck model design...but alas, nothing on the subject of this black and white beauty you see above you. And just when I was wondering why Boris have the First Act logo featured on some of their newer (2009) releases; even more so was "...what the hell would any of the members of Boris use out of the First Act assortment? Certainly not the guitar strings...or the distortion pedals...or the band-in-a-box...maybe the chromatic tuner? The plectrums?"
Another interesting point to me here is that First Act is more or less better known for introductory level instruments and equipment. Most of the items in their catalogue are priced at lower-end consumer levels (for poor-asses) and usually feature photography depicting children using the items more often than adults. What kid is gonna need to find his musical purpose on this hoss? And how the hell is he gonna lift it!?
I think the lesson here is that Boris do what Boris do.
Which is whatever the fuck fits.
