@Alphastyx7 it tends to have a sound like that because of the resonance between the close proximity strings (think sitar which is main strings lying on a bed of strings)... plus its not that easy to tune lol
i also wonder about the tuning. the same notes are tuned similarly "out" on two different places on the guitar...sounds like it's meant to not be a completely relaxing tapestry of notes, but instead to have some tension. Or maybe they both got detuned by roughly the same amount by temp change... :)

This guitar has tremendous bass response, I wonder what gauge strings he is using for the main 6...they look like bass strings.

How could you actually master or even play with any intelligence such a ridiculous instrument? I don't think Pat even knows what he's doing on it...

I think he does, he spent two years with the guitar at home before it ever appeared in public.

I'd love to hear about the bracing pattern on that guitar

@lftbass2 at 1:43 you can see what appears to be a split between the two halves of the soundboard. i'd say the bracing isn't quite enough.
