Although it goes against all convention, this stainless steel bass guitar is an incredible-looking instrument and all of its upgrades makes it superior.

This guitar is made entirely out of metal and there are many noticeable differences on it. The biggest change is the neck of the guitar. It is tubular with no frets. The designer Stan Potyrala made it this way to make playing the guitar as natural as possible. Since the entire instrument is made out of the same material, the chance of sounds changing because of temperature differences is eliminated. Because of this, your guitar will stay in tune for a prolonged amount of time.

The creation of this stainless steel bass guitar is revolutionary. If all of the upgrades actually work, this may be what the instrument will look like in the future.
