I needed more player&#8217;s and since I couldn&#8217;t find any and got tired of waiting for one, I duplicated myself. I made a double neck guitar first with a guitar neck on top and a bass neck bellow, but it was to far to travel between necks, it was eventually stolen, So I finally figured out how to make both fret boards on one neck. You can also use a loop pedal with either guitar or bass and jam with it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"810\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12766\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry-2.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry-2-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"810\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12767\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass-entry-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass3.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass3-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass3-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass5.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass5-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.bestbassgear.com\/ebass\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/bass5-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7y2rZhHWhKI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>The Neck is made of Maple with a mahogany body, since I was without a guitar player at the time I had to get innovated and this is what I came up with so I could be in close range with all strings for play-ability.
