Members Blackmaildesigns Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Those little tiny basses that had like, rubber bands for strings and, I guess, a transducer instead of a pickup. Who made that? Is there a link? Did anyone every record with one and did they every work musically? It's sick, but I dreamed about one last night.

Members Blackmaildesigns Posted February 9, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Thanks guys. I'd be interested in hearing an actual track made with one if anyone knows of anyone who's ever used one. thanks Blackmail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have sound clips on the link you gave me. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Guttermouth Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 i played one when they first reissued it.i had a hard time playing it due to the small neck but it sounded really great for that electrified standup/fretless vibe (it's a little on the plasticky sounding side due to the strings). if my hands weren't so freakishly long i would have bought one.

Members PaulyWally Posted February 9, 2007 Members Share Posted February 9, 2007 Besides some sample clips, I don't know if you'll have a lot of luck finding studio recordings made with them. I would guess there's a handful out there. But it was mainly used as a gigging bass... something someone could take in a taxi to get to a gig.
