Xanthus Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 This is probably the most intimidating instrument I've ever seen. 9 string, 4 octave, fanned fretless bass. A total monster. I'm not a bass guy, but I just stumbled upon it and thought people might want to take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTU 7's. Posted December 1, 2007 Report Share Posted December 1, 2007 The desing it's interesting. The idea of the extended fretboard over the pickups gives a nice touch to the bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanthus Posted December 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Yeah it is. That's one thing that struck me about this bass, though, is that I can't tell if it has a pickup or not. There's definitely a removable cover or sorts that's part of the fretboard. I was thinking maybe piezo in the bridge pieces? It is clearly unfinished, after all, no knobs or switches or anything.

Jon Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 The bass is finished now, I don't think I have seen pictures of it completed though. http://forum.extendedrangebassist.com/index.php?topic=819.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihocky2 Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Either way that is still pretty darned cool, and very creative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
