2 String Bass 1

Posted by Ben on December 1, 2009 at 9:05pm

This is a 2 string bass I made for a friend (need to make one for myself now). It has a 3 piece, bolt on, oak neck. Hand-wound pup with an Altoid Mint tin for the cover. It is built on a "Castro Bros" box that has the labels removed.

nice!...what scale length is it?...and did you need to strengthen the neck??

I don't have any of the inside. But I can tell you what I did. There is a block glued to the inside of the box and the heel is a block glued to the underside of the neck. I did one screw from the inside into the top of the neck and then 2 screws through the heel into the box. It has held up great!

I like....do you have pics of the inside of the neck?
