A guy not too far from my home in Massachusetts has been building some interesting stuff... This one i thought a bit unusual... Any thoughts?

It's pretty cool looking.....I don't really see the point of the "steps" though.

A very interesting concept,however I would be concerned with neck stability.The craftsmanship looks great as far as I can tell from the pictures. How do they sound?

Reminds me of five string banjos.

I have only heard one once a couple of years ago when a guy in a band playing on the same bill as my band had one. As I recall it sounded pretty good. Of course it caught my eye and I had to talk to him about it but it took me a while to get around to looking them up on the net.
