    It's a type of bass that teaches a bass player not to wear the bass down around the hips. There's little electrodes that you can't see. Nice 9V shock comin' at ya. I heard Jack had one of those.

    Fret more, worry less.

    Bongo only bass in Tom's life.

    I looked to see if it said 'Sting Ball' on the headstock.
