Weird Bass Guitars

A small selection of "unusual" basses. Weirdly shaped, old or new, some of them are not so comfortable to be played, but they can still be a wonderful acquisition.

    15 minutes to a ribbon controller. Oh, rock on. I’d all but given up looking for an anti-static plastic bag with the right resistance (as suggested by the article from PAiA). Sadly I don’t have an SVHS tape to sacrifice at the moment, but I’m wonder…

[…] Poco más podemos contaros de momento… Es evidente que cada consola contará con su propia guitarra, y es de esperar que cada plataforma cuente con un modelo de Gibson distinto, aunque todo es pura especulación.

Labai nemÄ—gau Å¡io instrumento - sunkus, storos stygos, reikia groti “keistai riešą iÅ¡lenkus”… vienu žodžiu net boso rakto penklinÄ™ reikejo mokytis… ir jokios melodijos - tik bum bum bum… Bet kuo toliau, tuo labiau supratau, kad Å¡is instrumentas yra neatskiriama ansamblio, ritmikos dalis ir pradÄ—jau jį mÄ—gti, eksperimentuoti su ritmu, improvizuoti, supratau, kÄ… reiÅ¡kia geras muÅ¡amųjų ir boso gitaros tandemas. VÄ—liau už savo uždirbtus ir sutaupytus pinigus buvau nusipirkÄ™s net savo - nuosavÄ… bosinÄ™ gitarÄ…, kuri, deja, po kolegos bandymo patobulinti - visiÅ¡kai prarado skambesį. Beje, ji taip ir liko TauragÄ—s 1-ojoje vid. mokykloje (dabartinÄ— Martyno Mažvydo vidurinÄ— mokykla)… kažin kas iÅ¡ jos beliko Na, o dabar Å¡tai kviečiu pasižiÅ«rÄ—ti įdomių bosinių gitarų kolekcijÄ… http://www.weirdomatic.com/weird-bass-guitars.html […]
