dafonky Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 (edited) Hi all, I am a bass player and i am looking for a new challenge, converting first an ordinary bass to piccolo, and even better, using later a short scale semi acoustic bass with a large body ( like a Gibson ES335) with piccolo strings. The result was even better with heavy jazz guitar strings Tuning EADG . I really like it. It has a jazzy semi acoustic sound. The only thing i miss are the upper 2 strings B and E.( for playing chords) Tuning it DGBE was less good, the bottom was missing ( i am a bass player) Perhaps looking for a 6- string guitar with extra wide neck? The starting point was the problem that the string spacing on an ordinary 6 string guitar is too narrow for me. I don' t like the baritone sound, I prefer a semi acoustic jazz guitar sound for jazz and funk music! Any suggestions? Thanks mates!
