This unique 3/4 size bass is constructed from sitka spruce reclaimed from a logging bridge support, walnut, ebonized hard maple, and a recycled steel drum. The soundboard is set into a walnut frame and finished with lacquer. The neck is all walnut and finished with a french polish. I added a carbon fiber endpin to hold it all together. Internal bracing keeps the steel drum quiet and helps the bass produce a deep boomimg sound! Click here for Detailed Pictures.

The 27 1/2 Gallon Bass!
The idea came to me in a dream at the Breaking Up Winter festival in 2011. I am not sure what prompted the vision... It could have been some combination of past experience, or possibly just sleep deprivation, musical saturation, and beer... At any rate, I constructed a 3/4 size bass from a recycled 55 gallon drum and a sitka spruce soundboard cut from reclaimed bridge timber. Walnut accents the soundboard and forms the neck and peg box. I added a carbon fiber endpin to hold it all together. The fingerboard and tailpiece are ebonized hard maple. The bass sounds great and will definitely add a bit of attitude to a band's stage presence. Check out the Photo Gallery to see additional pictures and info. Thanks to bass-man Joe Whelchel for demonstrating the bass on YouTube!
