Could be, but from the review video doesn´t seem to buzz.
 
Excellent concept, but straight is a lot easier to pull of than twisted just right...
 
adjusting the truss rod on something like that would be confusing!
 

Nice, I'm worried for fret buzz though.


Every string is equaly straight above its frets
as on a 'flat' neck. Plus, if it's so extry comfy,
I can bleeb that you could run a higher, more
buzz resistant, action height and never feel
like you are playing a higher effort.

Now, combine this with the fanned fret thing,
and I might be willing to chuck everything
else, and live with whatever tone said bass
is offering, just to coddle my aging hands.

But as long as I'd hafta choose BETWEEN the
fanned frets and twist neck .... I'll stay with
my beloved wrist wreckers.​

 
Dude, that is quite an excellent concept indeed (hate to sound like everyone else, but oh well)


And eh...I don't know about Warwick making one though...W's style already makes me jizz buckets by itself.

lol that is beautiful man.
 
I really love how that bass looks, warwick should do a bass like that, but i don't think that that will happen any time soon
 
Nice looking bass, I do wonder how it holds the twist, could be a nightmare in the future.

Will it prevent the health issues mentioned? I don't see how, they're in my territory now. Tendonitis and carpal tunnel SYNDROME (everyone has carpal tunnel or your hand wouldn't work) are repetitive motion problems, nothing to do with bending your wrists. Your wrists are designed to work bent like that, it's the repetitive motion of the fingers that causes the problems. Before scanners in stores cashiers and typists had the highest rate of these problems. Check any modern computer keyboard, they all have warning about these problems.

Sorry guys, it's the fingering that causes tendonitis and carpal tunnel syndrome, not that your wrists are bent.
