[ssteiyne]

[lesterclaypool1]

[Drblooter99]

Can you play "With My Little Stick of Blackpool Rock" by George Formby?

[Drblooter99]

What pickups did you put on it?

[fredtronics]

[chubbymosher700]

[AK8Y4]

hey ssteiyne can you make a video of demonstrating how to make a mini base?

[AK8Y4]

hey ssteiyne can you upload a video on how to make a bass like that?

[canman345]

thats gene simmons axe bass =O

[StopTheMoti0n]

can that be called a bass guitar? it is much to high to be contrabass..

[N11Ckk123472]

So its like a Gene Simmons bass ukulele?

[Monster4rmda559]

looks kinda like a small Gene simmons bass

[apatu1]

cool HOMEMADE guitar but isnt ukelele, is nothing, by the way, cool chords

[frazz23]

All of your instruments are awsome Shell.

I love the harmonics at the end too cool.

This is like Don Ho dropping some Acid and slapping his Ukulele...Rock on!!

[sexpanther99]

Why is everyone so blown away by this mans shitty invention of the world's worst sounding instrument?

[rottenhubert]

Because he's a god among men?  You have to respect this kind of commitment to an idea, even one as freakishly unusual as this. Just the words "mini bass" make me laugh out loud. The rest of us would chuckle and move on with an idea like this, but this guy goes and builds a whole herd of 'em. Genius.

[lostcause525]

HAHA! Tis is awesome, but i don't think it wounds like a ukelele, sorry to disappoint. Haven't heard anything like this before, you should tr to sell them! i'd buy one. except i can''t play guitars or basses, only brass. :( i'd still get a kick out of fiddling around with one, though.

[vidioshows]

what the fuck

[IMaiden89]

[rhythmsync]

Hey~ Shades of Tony Levin, King Crimson at the start! Nice one!

[IdontCheckMyEmails]

Hey!!!! I seen one of those things on ebay, it was the Gene Simmons bass just like this one. I didn't know you could play them.

(I think I'd rather have a regular size bass.)

[gradesleven]

thats so awesome man its friggen sweet i want one

[ClaustraphobicDemon]

thats sssssssssooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooo cool..i want 1!

[dnsslugg3r]

tbh next time u make one of these maybe get a better pickup or make ur own really small ones?  awesome lil bass tho loving it :D

[Asphaltheizer]

[washtubbass]

[hottboi123]

[ssteiyne]

Not enough. lol

[Tripleasasino]

It´s like a broken electric violin

[blackpleg28]

ohhh myyyyyyy gatoooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[robotssuckass]

i mean 1 1/2 feet...

[robotssuckass]

Kickass, I made a mini Rickenbacker 4001 bass very similarly. I want to try making some miniature tuners so I can make an acoustic about 1/12 feet long. I'll post vids if I do.

[chainduck]

very cool...I hear some King Crimson in that lick...nice!

[globogirl]

wow u have talent! thats really amazing, wish i had 1 lol

[dindglebeaver]

that's what I call creative. thnaks for the vid

[ssteiyne]

Hey thanks, i totally appreciate that, and your welcome. have a good one

[Pehuen003]

sounds quite like a mini chapman stick.

[ssteiyne]

that's trippy that you said that only because I didn't even know chapman sticks existed til a couple days ago. So I wouldn't have known what the heck you were talking about, lol. And they are awesome, so thanks for the compliment.

[ghost2sin]

Dude honestly, don't get offended by kids on youtube. Im immune to since i am consider a "kid" but you have toi realise most of these people on youtube there balls havent droped yet. Besides that nice invention.

[ssteiyne]

I know, I wasn't taking it to heart, I just wanted to laugh at him and see how he responds, if he does. btw, you have the sweet job, and projects going on. being a game tester would be sweet!! Have a good one.

[chkboi314]

my gtar is better than urs..mine has only 1 string but it can make a lot of sounds..i can even play 50 songs on my gtar...LOL DUDE!

[ssteiyne]

Well I would hope so, considering the neck on mine is a spatula handle, the fretboard is from a clipboard, and the frets are 18gauge brad nails. So it wouldn't take much to top this sweet piece of craftsmanship,lol. I can't wait to see your sweet one stringer!! Lates...

[HisXLNC]

Sopranino piccolo bass guitar?

[FloorSox]

that's pretty cool

[txorizo]

GREAT!!

[ratinhalugo]

Bass???

[ssteiyne]

Well it doesn't sound so bassey,lol, just called it a bass due to the fact it's only got 4 strings.

[claypoolrocksbass]

r u the same guy that made the les claypool style 19" bass??

[ssteiyne]

yep

[rjbrun123]

ha ha nice

[StoneFree14]

It looks really fun to play.

[zombiesfr0mhell]

what materials did you use for this???

[ssteiyne]

Well, this one was originally just going to be for looks for someones gene simmons doll, but he never came to pick it up. So I thought I would try to make it playable. The wood is a really soft wood, but not sure what kind. The neck is a spatula handle. The fretboard is made of clipboard material, and the frets are 18g brad nails. And the pickup is a contact mic I got from radio shack for about $2.99 not including the phone cable and phono jack needed to connect it all.

[quickandalivenotdead]

Sell that thing on eBay for some reason mini Axe Basses go for a crap load. Having one that you can actually play would probably snag $500.

[lordanati]

AWESOME MINI BASS!

[Ophel]

that is awesome! i want one of those.

[LeviMan2001]

that thing sounds cool, like some kind of bongo drums

[snardlefarb]

king crimson needs you and les claypool is interested in a collaboration as well.

[ys1992]

really tight.

[bapee105]

You should post this video in that contest made by 13STRINGS about making your own instrument. You would definetly win. Great Video!!

[battlefrostrecords]

That's cool! I want me one of those.

[KRAZYDEADMAN]

Lol A Munchkin

[AtticusStount]

All you need is a munchkin who can play that axe.

[dokuhaku2323]

nice job ssteiyne!

[dignity4life]

<No Comment> Just wow
