This is a full size Bass fiddle made from common lumber parts. Most of it is made from lumber found at any home improvement center. The Bass can be built in about one week-end and the cost is about $100. This Bass will hold it's own in any Bluegrass or Country Western group or just for fun-time jamming.I bought a commercial Bass to see if I could learn how to play it but decided they are too fragile for me. So I did some internet research and designed my own. The one I built sounds as good as the one I bought so I sold the commercial one. Now I don't have to worry about the sound post tipping over, humidty, cracks or antyhing else that would require a luthier to repair. This Bass has all the standard parts including a sound post, Bass bar, and supports on the inside. If you have ever thought about learning the Bass fiddle, this Bass might be the choice for you also.
