The feature bass for this week is a unique build that has interesting string options.
Otto from www.bassbird.nl writes:
I built a Rick-style bass with a 4 normal strings setting and a extra A,D,G strings with octave strings. The bass is built of mahogany body and maple neck. I used WCS pickups that can’t be switched single / humbucker. The bass has passive electronics, Kluson tuners and a ETS-MK111 bridge.
Well done!

You now, I get it — build something that’s unique and kinda cool. But what about playing the darn thing? Seems like it would be a hell of a lot of work!
Would love to hear how that sounds, Have you got any clips?
Wait til Mr Hall sees this!
THANKS BBG….AFTER CHECKING OUT THE BUILDERS WEB SITE I GET ANOTHER PLEASANT VIEW OF THE WORLD WE LIVE IN…..NICE BUILD….LOOKS HARD TO PLAY
I would really like to hear what it sounds like. I would love to see a five string version!
