Further Information

Project that I have been working on last months designing and make an acoustic bass,musical instrument I wanted to make years ago finally I had some time to start working on, the bass is at the final stage.

There are many factors in the bass that are new to the acoustic bass, the headstock has a classical guitar design and tailpiece has a special pin coming from the lower block and the tailpiece hock up on it where easily, it has a adjustable neck for string action and traveling, or option to have different fingerboards: Microtonal, fretless or even electric viol de gamba neck.

Tuning pegs will be wooden pegs like on viols and the electronic part will be piezo insert into the bridge and special microphone system inside the instrument. I am working up close with a Italian Luthier on that.

I've written solo pieces the acoustic bass, and now i want to bring this pieces into a studio environment, get a New York artist to make an album artwork for "Anima"and put the music on a vinyl/cd form.

Traveling with the instrument to different countries and play solo/duet concerts from the album Anima and introduce the acoustic bass , take the instrument to bass convention and make a webside.
