Jimothey Posted May 27 Author Share Posted May 27 As most of you know I’m partial to a Corvette bass so I’ve decided to try and make a solid body (corvette inspired) acoustic bass don’t quite know how it’s going to come out but I’m going to try it anyway……..👍🏻🤘🏻 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimothey Posted July 15 Author Share Posted July 15 I’ve started to play in a acoustic punk covers band so I built myself an acoustic bass and anyone who has seen any of my personal bass builds know I have a bit of an addiction to the corvette shape so I thought why not blend the two here’s what I come up with so far……… Then I thought I’ll make a back up bass so I decided to make it my second favourite bass shape a Thunderbird, here’s just a quick mock-up….…. Then the two guitarist decided they wanted an acoustic each so I’ve cut the tops for them so far they wanted a kind of ES335/Starcaster type shape……. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
