Uke-Scale Bass

Basses built with a uke scale length of 21 inches.


This bass is a 21" scale, with a piezo saddle mounted in an adjustable bridge. The soundhole is just for looks. The strings are metal-wound Kalas. The fretboard is cut out of the ugliest piece of wood I ever received. For such a small neck, I managed to cut around most of the ugly, and the result isn't half bad.


21" neck, adjustable bridge with piezo saddle, active electronics. EBay body. Now has metal-wound strings.


WordPress has always made a mess of images, but the new version is worse than I have ever seen. The server is polluted with gigs of unused crap that WP automatically generated and discarded. Yet at the same time, there are piles of broken image links. What the hell is this "smart" system doing?
