Fun fact : In French, a wash tub is called a "bassine". BTW you can also build a whamola for a fairly low price.

I think a redneck heard that and was like it is a instrument were do you strum it not realizing they were just calling it a wash tub or laundry bucket made it as a joke and found out it actually makes a pretty good bass sound for country, folk, and old style+blues
@scottbubb29467 ай бұрын
I built a whamola out of parts and scrap lumber I had in my garage. Mostly from a roll-up garage door (cable, pullies, springs, brackets). Took the pickup and output jack out of an old no-name brand Les Paul knockoff that someone gave me. Took me about half a day, from planning it to playing it. I've been using it for about 12 years and still works great. Cost was literally nothing.

As someone from a folkpunk band, a genre that uses these kinds of basses pretty often, the best choice of string is anything with a high nylon content whether its some old nylon clothesline or just some nylon cored rope this will give you the best tone and volume. When drilling your hole into the bucket be sure not to leave any sharp edges or else cracks will begin to form, also used an oversized washer on the underside to hold in the rope, don't just have it directly on the bucket. Good playing height for the stick is about at your shoulder, so just find a decent wooden rod and cut it to height.

There’s a really old one at my church here in Appalachia that I play around with. It looks like the American example you show. But it can be played like the one from Trinidad or from America. This is because the screws to hold the stick portion or “fretboard” though it’s fretless are loose enough to give it a good clearance to move the board around. Ultimately allowing both playing styles. Most people had no idea what it was but I just started playing it and they started to get an idea.
