I wish, there damned expensive.
 
As for playing them, you need to (obviously) have perfect fret tapping. If your just playing bass lines your just going to have to get used to playing them with the stick straight up. I guess with playing bass and melody on them would require the same kind of mental dexterity that you need for a keyboard.

If you need to have perfect tapping, I'm f**ked. My tapping technique is fast, but the tone can kill squirrels. My neighbors hire me when they need a squirrel exterminator.
