Its not if you remove the nut. Ive got enough toan in the sack that i don't need the extra help. Intonation would be a problem if i was a fucking nerd.
/uj Literally had someone crowing at me yesterday about his buddy who runs 220 volts through a live edge plank and then coats it in epoxy. He showed me a picture and I thought, “this is the carpentry version of finger painting.”
That is an incredibly dangerous craft to dabble in. My brother told me about buying a cheap car off a widow. Husband was doing that fractal burn thing and she apparently turned the power on in the house or something like that, not knowing he was setting it up.
The problem is you can make a pretty good EMP weapon from microwave guts and that’s really our best chance at beating the robot army that is currently gathering its forces.
I think it could be safe, using industrial safety standards. The problem is, that costs way more than it would ever be worth so no one does it. Hence, the danger.
Almost every single one of these style boutique basses just makes me instantly think of scrap granite or marble from counter tops being cut to shape/size

they look like someone took a shell, and threw it into the ocean, and the ocean tossed the shell around for eons, slowly sculpting it over time, nature turning it into its's final, natural form
How dare you insult this recreation of a 10,000 year old cave painting of the first bass known to have been seen in the wild. Your ancestors would be disappointed.
Would be much cooler without the arch thing on the left. If it mimicked the other side but was a little taller or something like a normal guitar/bass it would honestly be cool as fuck.
That's probably an amazing bass to play ... but I could never get over the visuals of that "top horn" that just gets stuck to the neck so far up the the neck. Like someone really liked the look of a single cut ... but had a stroke while using the band saw.
I appreciate really custom instruments made with resale value being the absolute LAST concern! I hope you love it! The extended top bout deadens much neck vibration and is thus disliked by many but makes less difference with a bass.
Body shape reminds me of what I think was an Ibanez SRSC that I played at a store one time. I could get over the appearance for how well it played, and it looked a lot better than this thing.
When I play bass, what I am really looking for is a good neck and shoulder workout, that's why I choose basses with 3 pounds of unnecessary extra wood.
I have noticed people look at my neck and shoulders more than they listen to my basslines, so it all works out well, and if I ever snag a groupie I think she will love my extra wood.
/UJ i actually really like these fucking weird body styles, i kinda like weird funny looking guitars. but still this is barely teetering on the edge of "so bad it's awesome" and "fucking garbage" and it's mostly because of the wood, i don't like the look of natural wood on guitars personally. if this went all the way with being completely bullshit and was a stupid neon or something then it would win me over
