upright bass

This is a base I built some years ago. It´s made out of two sheets of 18mm plywood laminated together. Plywood fretboard and plastic tube for the "soundwell". Cello machine head. Bits and pieces. Relay coil pick up.

    Very unique and very cool~  Got a video of how it sounds?

    The back of the sound well is covered with some kind of plastic skin to act like a drum, kind of. But honestly it doesn´t do much to the sound so i guess its just a well... but you can drum on it ;)

    Thanks for the nice comments.

    A vid´s on its way
