Looks pretty awesome, until you start looking at some of the detailing more closely. The routing of the pickups, the shape of the wooden pickup covers which aren't fully symmetrical or identical, the recessed (why? It's just 1 mm!) adjustment nuts of the truss rods, the routing around the adjustment nuts, and the fact that the fingerboard is slightly wider than the neck itself at the treble side near the neck pickup... Really not that pretty :|

I believe this is Penguin's bass and has had it listed in the for sale section in the past.

Just so you know, the fingerboard is is symmetrical and has a slight overhang on the bass side as well. I don't know why the photo shows up like that on eBay, so I will post some photos here to show:
