X-Long-Scale Basses


This is the biggest of the Audiovoxes, weighing in at a full 12 pounds, with a 36" scale. The neck is a Brazilian Cherry (Jatoba) floorboard over maple, with a straight cutout headstock. There are over 100 marker dots. The body is veneered masonite over solid plywood, with Danelectro-style Tolex binding. There are also strap buttons, this instrument can be played vertically or horizontally.


I set the site up earlier this year, using one of the default WordPress themes - TwentySixteen - and some code I wrote myself. The big push then was to get all the old content into the new system and somewhat organized. It was a huge amount of work just to get everything 'good enough', and then I let it lie.
