Another 14 string bass being build.

bostjan · 11-14-2007, 01:39 PM

Yeah, on second look, it appears that the fret angles are far too oblique for it to be playable.

Maybe 26" to 36" would work, but I'd say 32" to 38" would have been a wiser choice.

Maybe yes, but as this guy said, he don't want to go lower, rather higher, thats why those scales.
BTW he didn't have wood long enough to go longer scales

I saw it on that forum some time ago. It's sick!

Looks like a real funtional and easy to play bass guitar.

What's that tuned to? G#00-Db5 ?

Probably pick up a set of strings on EBAY?

Metal Ken · 11-14-2007, 09:59 PM

30"-20"? Thats a huge fan, and those scales arent exactly ideal...

Missed the original tuning by an octave? Reminds me of the Mars lander... "We did the measurements in feet and the calculations in meters! Whoops! Fucker BURIED!"

After looking at the other pics, the thing is like a chode: Short and fat.

G#00 at 30" ?!

Ah, sarcasm...

for some reason I didn't expect sarcasm from Garry, since he's such a nice guy.

He gets my approval for fretting a coffee table.

That thing is going to be a beast. I don't think those stripes look all that great either actually.

I'm curious to see how the saddle placement is going to work on that thing. I can see it being way fucked up.
