Annoying Twit Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 It seems that Danelectro introduced the first six string bass, tuned E A G D B E, like a guitar but an octave down, in the 50s. And then Fender copied Danelectro [url="http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=401075"]http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=401075[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
