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.
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.
PLEASE DO NOT READ sorry i read this by mistake but better safe than sorry, PLEASE DON'T READ THIS you will die in seven days if you don't post this comment on 10 videos in the next hour. if you do, tomorrow will be the best day of your life
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.
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.
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.
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.
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...
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.
thank you very much for that moment of laughter!

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.
