The Jordan Electric Violins Electric Upright was one of the
most eye-catching instruments at the show. This being a NAMM show and
all, luthier John Jordan pulled out all of the stops for this headless
6 string: maple neck and body, Moses carbon fiber fingerboard, RMC
electronics with 1/4" and 13-pin synth-converter-compatabile outputs,
iridescent finish, and an "A extension" that goes down to a piano's
lowest note. Prices start at $5,000 for a 4 string - the full bells and
whistles 6 string pictured here tops out at $8,000.
