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 re-worked the default WordPress TwentySixteen theme into something far better. Not only is the display much more streamlined and compact, but the code behind it as well. The people who design these things overkill them into an unmanageable mess. Most of what I did was simply deleting miles and miles of repetitive unnecessary css spaghetti code and replacing it with just a few new lines. Most developers seem to think that more code is better. That is so wrong.
