NBD!!!!!!! 11 String Multiscale Extended Range Prometeus Bass! (Extended-Range Content)

[bholder]

I would have no clue what to do with it, but that is beeee-you-teeful!

 

[Gorn]

Does the bottom string have such low tension that it actually sags? Or is it the lighting or something?

That's the pickup magnetic pull (I'm guessing), not a gravity sag.

 

[Ballin'bass]

Jesus....

 

[Why Nautilus‽]

Fantastic bass, I'd love to hear it. I'd be tempted to find a slightly longer C# string, as the windings at the nut look dodgy. If it tunes up fine though, then I can't complain.

I need to put a whole new set on the bass, it's just another hundred some dollars, so I'm gonna wait.

It's also an incredibly large open-core string. When I play it, the whole instrument vibrates in my arms. It's unlike anything I've ever felt.

 

[Ninevolt]

That. Is. INCREDIBLE!!! You can't just drop that is our faces with no demo! Even if it's just noodling.... gotta hear that instrument sing!

Edit: I'm sending you my doctor's bill to have my jaw reattached.

 

[AlexanderB]

The above bridge pick made me smile... String sizes go from "pipeline" to "spider web"...

Good luck with your new instrument!

Upper bout looks kind of like a flint-knapped arrowhead. Cool. Nice score.

 

[spanndrew]

So jealous.

Ask and ye shall receive. This was filmed on my phone, my bad?

 

[TonyP-]

I dig it

It would make my day if you put on Stand By Me and played along. Maybe Louie Louie.

When I'm back from work, it will happen. Stand By Me would be my preference, but I'll dance around with Louie Louie for you too.

 

[steelbed45]

Very nice - it seems to have evenness in tone going up the neck. Lovely instrument.

The words dancing around and 11 string bass may never have been used in the same sentence before! An 11 string is not my thing, but it looks beautiful and I'm glad that you are happy with it. Make great great music with it!

Oh, and Jaco only needed 4 strings, just thought you should know that

Thank you, there is always one. I'm glad that it was you.

Makes me miss my 7 string. Waiting for basses is the best, worst thing ever. The grin in the first picture kinda, just kinda, gives the impression it was worth it

Waiting for a bass is like waiting for a child to be born. Except you get to see progress pictures more frequently. And I can leave it alone by itself. (As little as I want to)

 

[Ninevolt]

Ty for the clip! That is one MONSTER bass. When I got my five string I thought "Yaaaaa.... more bass.. " but... after seeing that I started feeling inadequate. Then another thought popped in my head.....

(Sorry, have to do it) ..... "maybe he's overcompensating for something?"

Can't wait to hear more clips!
