Hi, I don't have any samples. This bass and a similar one I traded away.The latest one I have has a slightly larger hollow body box, and the piezo sits on top of the sound chamber. They all sounded pretty good, using my fretless bass as a model. The bridge needs to sit on a box or chamber, otherwise the whole instrument becomes sensitive,and noisy. Even a small box would be better than this solid body with a piezo. An electric pickup would have been better with the solid body. It was a learning experience. Be sure to use some kind of box if you use a piezo, which I recommend over an electric pickup.
Thanks. The body looks smaller than it is because of the way the camera distorts the angle. I have a short rod that I thread into the bottom, and I play sitting down. Peace, Rich

Hi,
great gear. I'm going to build such fretless upright bass but with small box.
can you post some sound samples?
