I've seen some funky ars guitar shapes in my life, but this bass guitar is easily the funniest to me. I have to admit I love practical jokes and I love the double take nature of this one! Brilliant! 
This is Stig Pedersen from Denmark's band D-A-D. Thanks to blogger G L Wilson for finding this image. Check out his blog for more funky ars guitar photos like the concrete guitar.

way different, if it sounds good – go for it
Ok, let me get one thing straight!! Stig’s basses are NOT fake or photoshopped! THEY ARE REAL!
I took the photo up above with Stigge playing on his brand new bass back in 2005.. Stig is playing playing the Denmarks biggest rockband D-A-D (formerly known as Disneyland After Dark), which recently celebrated their 25 years anniversary as a still going rockband. Stig is well known for his amazing 2 stringhed basses, which most of time are very special made, and his amazing outfits! I’ve been a D-A-D fan since 1996 and entered 36 concerts so far and I KNOW that all of his basses are FOR REAL! Kindly regards from Tina Carstensen
This photo is NOT fake or photoshopped! It’s so real! This is Stig Pedersen from the Danish rockband D-A-D (www.d-a-d.com). He only uses a 2 stringhed bass and and he is wellknown for having these amazing special designed basses!
Btw I’m the one who took this photo and I’ve entered 36 D-A-D concerts, so I know FOR SURE.. that this image and bass is REAL! Kindly regards Tina Carstensen

1:27, then stop all that “Photoshop”-crap.
Peace!
This bass is NOT FAKE OR PHOTOSHOPED, this is for real!! I’m the one who took this photo and have entered 36 concerts with D-A-D! Stig loves to make the most funny 2 stringed basses…just as much he loves to jump in the some funny looking, but also great costumes while entering the stage!
Kindly regards from Tina Carstensen
Hey Everyone..
First of all I’m the person who took this photo and let me just get everything straight, that Stig’s bass is FOR REAL! Nothing’s fake and it wasn’t made in photoshop. In fact ALL Stigge’s basses are real.. A lot of people/fans have entered D-A-D’s concerts (including me) and knows that this is true! I’ve entered 36 concerts with D-A-D!
Kindly regards from Tina Carstensen

I´ve seen it too…and I´m going to D.A.D´s show tonight in Gothenburg. Hopefully he will play on this bass again.
That is freaking fantastically funny! I laughed my ass off! And I almost never leave a participle dangling!
To all of you who say it’s fake
ive seen him playing that bass live.
You might want to credit Tina Carstensen for this photo.

haha..
its real.. he always plays on a two stringed.. then… why not turn upside down ? its just fun.. why dont you think its real ?
Wow, that’s what I call a serious design!!!
actualy its a real guitar
NOT a picture that has been altered with Photoshop
D:A:D is a Danish band used to be known as Disneyland After Dark,until Disney sued them for using Disneyland in their name been putting out some great albums since 1979.. I know I have about 8 of them.. Stig who is pictured here has an amazing collection of 2 string basses such as the one pictured here, including a rocket ship and an automobile fender….
it does look a little photoshopped, just around the headstock. the real headstock…that looks like a body…, not the real body that looks like a headstock.
actually it looks like MS Paint, not photoshop. but i don’t doubt that it’s not real.
It is easier to learn to tune a bass like that….

There are no Photoshop used here.Stig has always had weird basses.
Their music are even better
Nevi
Denmark
lol What the fuck is with Photoshop these days?
Yeah, I get the occasional UFO, but COME ON PEOPLE!
Start looking shit up before randomly spouting “IT’S SHOPPED” and making a total ass of yourself.
You know who you are.
Two for the price of one?
to all the vapid bozos who scream “PHOTOSHOP” at everything… STFU, you lameassedcocksuckerz.
Dang, Dan I hadn’t even noticed the clear bass cabinets at all until you mentioned that! Good eye.
im not even a very skeptical person but i thought it was photoshopped as well and i play bass and have been for 5 years, but im surprised no one made a comment about his clear bass cabinets thats crazy as well.
hey look something creative, must be photoshopped
That’s very cool! Love it!
NOT PHOTOSHOP, it’s a real bass – seen them live… They’re called D.A.D, which stands for Disneyland After Dark, a name they had to drop after Disney sued them. The bass-player, Stig, has a number of crazy designs, but always plays with two strings only. They had mild success in the 80s and 90s, so I’m sure you can find them on youtube.
Peace
That fella,
Are you the guy that sells comics on The Simpsons.
Go out, get a life and have a drink sometime.
No it’s not “photoshopped”, saw them last week before Motörhead and his bass really looks like that.
Haha, those who think it’s photoshopped.. Shut up, it ain’t .. I’ve seen them live, and he got a lot of different basses that looks wierd
such a great design. why bother with strings at all?
no it really doesnt look photoshopped tho. It could be a read guitar. Ya never know.
That’s a great design, looks like you tune it at the wrong end too.
I guess this bassplayer just figured why have more strings I only use the low ones anyway…
I did not know they still played.
J
It’s not photoshopped, I saw them last year at a festival, Stig also has a space rocket and lots of other funny/crazy basses
umm Photoshop is not a verb… stop using it as one… plus this guitar is awsome
does it come in left and right hand designs?
This is absolutely true. i’m from Denmark, and i’ve seen them live a couple of times. The bass player always use just 2 strings. he gets his basses made in koege, south of copenhagen.
thats damn kewl!
“oh my job is insisting everything is photoshopped…
whats that?
a rare sword…
photoshopped………”
XD
lol wtf
that is the wierdest thing i have ever seen
aweful
I can’t believe somebody thought it was photoshopped. It’s pretty sweet, though. I’m willing to bet I know its tuning (D and A).
Funny! Good news is that there are only two strings to keep in tune!!!
That is so Photoshopped, it’s not even funny.
Ah – so that’s what they mean by reverse headstock!
Gotta get me one of those!
Funny
Awesome.
