  • you can  use i the springs on a 4 string too . by stretching the spring out differently on each.  but . ya kinda gotta  "tune"  each to length .(pain in the  a@@)  but .. only gotta do it once   ;-)

     

  • cool..  here's a tip . (more for one string  weed wacker basses ) .

    If you want to use a mag pickup ,  slip a metal  pen spring over the string , Place it  right where  it meets the pickup .  you can crimp the ends to help it stay in place if needed .

  • Me too Uncle :D , those weedwacker basses really freak people out at first, thanx for sharing 

  • Great looking build, congrats on playing out with it!

  • Does anyone else kind of think debut is a funny word.   Looking good, Dean.  I bet you and the whacker sounded the same.
