I don't think i've ever heard a uke played as tuneful and the bass uke is very impressive. I have a friend who occasionally plays the pubs and folk clubs as a duo (uke + electric bass).
I just sent him your movie clip, i know his eyes are going to pop when he see's that bass uke! Smile Cool

The bass uke is certainly unique. It is tuned the same as a regular bass, and has rubbery strings that remind me of nibs.

Is it an Ashbory? That was invented by a very good luthier who used to live local to me (Nigel thornbory)

Wicked bass sound.

The strings are the same as the ones used on an Ashbury, but this uke is a UBass made by Kala: http://www.kalaukulele.com/

Rev, thanks for coming back to me about that. I can pass the info to my friend now.
Look forward to hearing more from you.
