I had an absolute blast working with you on this build! Much appreciation for your experience, knowledge, and friendship, Del!

@AndyMinchew 3 года назад

Scotty what did you use for string spacing? In the video you said you used 34" scale.

@scottyonbass4003 3 года назад

We ended up with an actual scale length of 28" and the string spacing is standard CBG from Del's template. It's a little tight, but playable!

@howtoman8990 3 года назад

that bass is sweet. I was just doing a search to see if anyone had done a bass at all. Glad to see it can be done, and done very well.

@Jackman_NC 3 года назад

Will this work on a fretless setup Scotty?

@scottyonbass4003 3 года назад

@@Jackman_NC Del has far greater expertise in lutherie than I do, but I'm pretty sure that a fretless CBB would be quite doable. I've seen some debate on where to put the position markers on a fretless; my preference is to have them exactly where the fret would be on a fretted fingerboard, rather than in-between. Of course, then there are the fretless guys who don't need markers! 😎

Del, I have been watching your videos for a while now and have built my first Cigar Box Guitar with your help, but this video, it just made me have to post up and say, WOW, so very cool. Real music with friends, that is the stuff right there. Thank you for the info and the inspiration, you sir, ROCK!

You ripped a pickup out of a rickenbacker? For a cigar box bass?? You're insane and I kinda love it.

@kevintaylor5837 3 года назад

AWESOME. Perfect timing, too. I've acquired a wooden silverware box that is basically a large, felt lined cigar box I want to make a bass with.

@rolandmarchand1708 3 года назад

Well Del and Scotty you both are rocking right. It sounds good coming thru the iPad nice but live must really sound good.. I can’t wait for more.

@r.catton8731 Год назад

It would be nice at the beginning of your guitar builds that first off you give the scale and the string guages that you are using, that would be extremely helpful for anyone who desired to try your build. Thanks

I modified the BBG kit guitar into a bass. But I used the A D & G strings instead. To me the E string was too heavy for the little box. But it sounds pretty good.

Del, I know this was awhile back but can you remember how y’all grounded the pickup. You usually use a hinge and ground it that way but not here. Thinking about making one for a friends 40th birthday, I personally can’t remember that far back….hehe…

@scottmichael3745 2 года назад

Alright my man that $hit looks GOOOD! But, having build CBG's for several years now, I have learned something. Solid carved is Bad a$$, but laminated, is stronger and stiffer. Trust me on this. I have CBG's that can hold a tune for over a year, and even then, Very minor tuning required (I think it's more string stretch than anything). Still straight as an arrow and over 6 years under string load. And I can make then "look" solid with a fret board. But VERY nice! Thanks.

@seanny2tees Год назад

This is some fantastic validation. I'm currently in the middle of my first CBG..I mean CBB build. I'm doing a 2 string as I have used a hockey stick for the neck that passes through the box and, yes, still has the blade attached. Been wondering which 2 strings would be best. Leaning towards A and D cuz I read the bassist from morphine ran the same setup. Any advice would be dope.
