My local music store had one of these futurist basses for sale for the longest time. As a young teenager I used to stop in and lust after it, dreaming of being in some new wave, post punk band playing it. It sold before I could save up the few hundred dollars they wanted for it. I've thought about this bass for years but never saw anyone ever playing one and random google searches for "80's futuristic headless bass" never turned up any images of it.
Last night I was watching old WIRE videos and saw the bass player playing one on the Suzanne Sommers late night show from 1987 with a W logo on it. After some investigating I finally found it.
