Wonder if he will make me a set of those knobs for my Stingray...?

Somebody on another thread was complaining how we sterotype Canadians. The "Log Bass" does nothing to help their cause.

There's another one of these for sale here in T.O. at Paul's Boutique.

Looks like a butt-nugget, in my opinion...

So what exactly is the effect of tree sap on nitro?

Very even coverage on there, must have taken him hours of overspraying to avoid any orange peel.

RE: the recent thread regarding which bass in a fight? I'll take this one!

 

[IconBasser]

incredible.

All we need are some termites to make it into a chambered body log bass.

Reading this, I initially thought that it may be a Lakland Owner's Group (LOG) bass.

Yeah me too. I was thinkin that Dan Lakin was really letting QC slip quite a bit with these new LOG basses.

 

[Stee Flo]

couldn't resist - Its starts out with a sound clip of the bass

 

[S. Katz]

It's logggggg, logggggg,
It's big, it's heavy, it's wood!

It's logggggg, logggggg,
It's better than bad, it's good!

All kids love Log!

Hi everyone, I am here.

I am the guy who built the log bass (with a lot of help from a friend!)

And we had a LOT of fun working on it. Most people who have picked it up and played it were impressed by the playability as well as the tone.

And of course, every time we pull it out of a bag peoples eyes seem to light up when they see it.

Except for here in the Talk Bass forum it seems. But that's cool.

So my question then is:

What exactly is is that you hate so much about it?

Is it the actual bass?

The log?

The bark?

Or is it the price?

 

[JoshuaTSP]

Call the Log Lady! She could play it. (and tell you what it was saying)

WIN!

 

[NickInMesa]

Gives me a lot of ideas.

Concrete block bass guitar
Cricket bat bass guitar
Enema bag bass guitar

What else? So many possibilities...

Sometimes, the TB crowd is a tough nut to crack...maybe your price is a little high for a log...maybe you could post some sound clips or a video of the log?

I kinda like how it looks around the pickup/bridge area - but I think your asking price is just too high. I think someone here said they'd pay $200 for it. I dunno, just a thought.

I'd call that bass "firewood"

 

[ras allover]

well, as the co-creator of the log bass ONE i'm just trying to find out what exactly is so offensive about it, is it the bass itself, or is it just the price tag?

it's been suggested that i move the decimal point, so the price would be a around $100. but after all, it is an original piece of art/ instrument and quite unique at that. it is quite playable as such, and has a great tone, if you looked at the pictures you'd see the amount of work that went into it.

i am working on number TWO now, much more refined that the original, and i'm thinking about building a few LOG guitars as well ... but it all takes time, parts and shop hours ...
