Hey,

has anyone ever tried one of these? They look crazy. I understand that the fanning is to account for different tensions because of the variance between regular guitar necks (ie. 25 1/2") and bass necks (28"). But man, these things look crazy to play! I wonder if it takes a while to adjust to. If you don't know what I'm talking about, take a look here:
