According to this article "As a connoisseur of Jack Daniel's whiskey, Mike was prompted to build a bass in the shape of a Jack Daniel's bottle at the urging of friends. The bass was originally built as a novelty item and was assembled from various bass parts including Kramer rear tuners by Michael, Kevin Dugan and Dave Jellison. The pickups were built into the bridge to keep the paint job smooth and consistent. The guitar made its debut appearance in the video for "Panama," and was delivered during filming of the video at the Spectrum in Philadelphia, PA."
