Grangur Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Welcome Dimitris. If you're "trying" to play, you're being brave playing with different tunings! I too would like to see your basses sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saved Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Thank you for the welcome guys. It took me 4 months to build it because of the limited time i had.Now i am building one longer.It was very difficult to find wenge wood with so big lengh,and again because of the limited time it will take months to finish it.It started 8 months ago the design,and i change mind in the middle.So next days i hope to build the neck and continue with the body. Any way,here is the "Praiser" specs are maple/wenge/maple/wenge/maple neck bolt on and goes inside the body till the middle of pickups ash/maple body ambura top dimarzios dp 127&144 stereo out phase switch series/parallel switch tone with hi-cut (push/pull) for the neck pickup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldwinbass Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Thanks for the pic Dimitris, and update on the new build - if you feel like it, you can contribute to Build Diaries here on Basschat so we can watch progress! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saved Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Here is one pic with the 40" and a normal 34" Also one graphic comparison that made passinwind for me ( i send him audio samples). Is the LB open.The red is the 40" and the green is the 34". Both set as flat as possible.Also the 40 is passive and the 34 active. I will think about the build diaries.I like to share the project,but i have to be careful because i am gonna use some patented designs and i am not looking for trouble,so i am not sure if its is a good idea to publish fotos from the build or a finished bass without ID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
