Looks too plain. I have a cast steel bridge, came stock on my Cort. I think it's a modified version of the one-piece Hipshot D Style bridge, and the premium paid for it was definitely worth it, even if the benefit was only in looks. Terrible photo, sorry.

That's why I'm gonna switch to playing the hurdy gurdy, so I can be sure there's no way I will ever learn everything I can possibly do on that crazy instrument.

I've made fun of kids for less.

This looks fantastic, it reminds me of a Ritter, especially the headstock.

I played a guitar upside-down for a while, 'cause the person who gave it to me was a lefty. Eventually, I restrung it the right way around. I can honestly tell you that there's no advantage or disadvantage to either choice. The only practical use I've seen for upside-down stringing is a local...

I'd totally do it. Wait for those equipment snobs to tell you your gear sucks 'cause it's a Squier, and you can sit their asses down for a lesson.

Subbed, this looks really interesting.

Thanks! I think in a perfect world, the scale length might be a bit longer, and maybe the pickups would be set up totally differently. Maybe a bass pickup for shortscale or piccolo basses for the highest 4 strings, and then one half of a P-style pickup for the lowest 2 strings. Also would be...

Sorry this took so long, it was an utter pain to record and piece together. I'm running direct into my Tascam US-322 interface, into Ableton 9 Live, into AmpliTube 3 on various amps for the tones I was getting. If you want specifics on a sound, just ask. You should probably listen through...

40 - 60 - 75 - 95 user here. Fingerstyle has a lovely semi-hollow Rick sound to them, like a disco bass tone. I find that slapping on them is super sharp sounding, and almost like metallic clanging, which I, a Djent whore, find most pleasing.

I bought my first bass for looks. Didn't play or listen to it at all beforehand. Turned out to be awesome anyway.

I'll get right on it. Any song requests I should try out on it?

True. I wish it wasn't an absolute pain with the electronics to get individual pickups for each string. I mean, I've seen what Wal created and it terrifies me.

It's pretty worth it if you can pull it off, there's so much potential. Like, there always looks to be a big divide between guitar and bass, but it's about compromise. I remember a build thread on here where a man built his son, who was 3 (if I remember correctly) at the time, a Stringray-style...

Weeeeellllll... So, somehow, it plays in tune relatively well. I tried to do a saddle adjustment and gave up quickly since nothing moved far enough, and I realised this thing is super cheap anyway, and just a concept. I'm gonna let my guitarist friend play around on it and see if it's even worth...
