Jimothey Posted July 15, 2024 Author Posted July 15, 2024 Iāve 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 hereās what I come up with so farā¦ā¦ā¦ Ā Ā Then I thought Iāll make a back up bass so I decided to make it my second favourite bass shape a Thunderbird, hereās just a quick mock-upā¦.ā¦. Ā Ā Then the two guitarist decided they wanted an acoustic each so Iāve cut the tops for them so far they wanted a kind of ES335/Starcaster type shapeā¦ā¦. Ā 5 Quote
