It's an old ZBCustom that someone removed all the guts.
Possibly was being used as a non-pedal steel ?
As you can see from the picture Bob has posted here:
http://b0b.com/wp/?p=616
the undercarriage of a ZB was HEAVY.
As for the 10 pedals?
WHo knows?
This may have been Zane's personal "let's see how much we can stuff under there" test machine.

Lots and lots of pedals for a single neck?

Not too crazy...

Sneaky Pete had 9 on his Fender, and it was only an 8string !

My '67 Scranton S-10 came equipped with 8 pedals. (Three now, but undercarriage hardware is still there.)
