Suggestions welcome on how to do this.  I'm thinking a neck somewhat like a banjo... Bass up the middle with standard guitar up either side.

You can check out the Mobius Megatar website for their version of a chapman stick.

Here's some inspiration... It's an extended range bass, played by hammer on & tapping. From the fertile mind of Knut Wilhelm, of Oslo Norway.

That is insane!

http://ebass.nl/site2/models/  this is a really cool stand up bass web site, but their mostly all modern versions of electric standups.....check it loads of cool picks and web sites for all the builders.

That's pretty cool! How would you go about learning to play it? Looks like it would be pretty complicated.
