Not just a bass, this is an Alembic!

My 4 string looks just like that, but long scale with P/J pickups.

Everybody knows I like the alternative material basses, so I couldn't resist showing off some aluminum from the vault.  The upper one is a TB-2000, the "regular" Travis Bean bass, this one in koa.  It's rare, but not like you'll never see one.  It's a really great bass with a very distinctive tone.  It's heavy but quite comfortable - balances really well with the long upper horn.  The black bass is really, really rare.  This is a Travis Bean Wedge bass. 

you sir are living in aluminum heaven. Is there any sonic difference between the TB2000 and the Wedge?
