Finsihed the Mark Stanley Design Bass Guitar
Posted: Wed May 02, 2012 1:16 am
I finsihed the bass guitar tonight. Mahogany back and sides, red cedar top. The headstock veneer is ebony and the back of the headstock has bookmatch Koa veneer. Fretless Rosewood fingerboard and rosewood pinless bridge. LR Baggs under the saddle element pickup.
It actually sounds ok both plugged in an unplugged. Right now I have GHS acoustic light Bass strings. Last night I had medium Martin Acoustic bass string. It was a lot more powerful with the mediums. I will probably try them again. I just had this feeling that the guitar would explode. Un plugged the mediums sounded better. Plugged in the lights sounded great.
