Playing Bass

Posted by Fergus Morris on September 13, 2009 at 4:33pm

This is my first CBB. It is not actually a cigar box, but a WHSmith acrylic paints box- but it is quite a nice box. It is a long scale bass, and the fist bass i have ever owned. The neck is a bought "flasher" - whatever that might be! It has a pbass pickup, a jazz bass pickup, and two piezo transducers under the bridge, though the electronics are still a bit fishy and might need some tweaking.

Pretty tricked out Cigar Box Bass and a guaranteed conversation starter in any band setting!!!
