[grendle]

[ivyman]

[ivyman]

[OneMoreRobot]

I'd like it a lot more if you did like an article on each one. Some of them I'm interested in knowing more about.

 

[ivyman]

yeah i thought about doing that but some of them really arent that interesting and are more just an image thing, but if there was a particular one you wanted to know about id be happy to do an article on it

thanks moonshine, if you wanna send me a pm with information about the bass and why you build it appreciate it. I was thinking of writing an article on building basses and i could feature your bass

I'm curious. Is Rattlesnake the best tone wood? How does it affect the sound?

 

[ivyman]

I dont think you can really say what the best tone wood is.. they all have different tones, whether you want bright, warm, deep, hollow or dull is really up to you. I dont really know what rattlesnake wood is or if it exists, so yeah. Hope i helped

 

[ivyman]

wait you were making a joke about the snake bass werent you? damn im stupid

 

[vincentpghpa]

Why does the snake bass have a foot?

 

[ivyman]

yeah i just noticed, i think the snake ate a small child...
