My new Bass creation

Hello dear bass friends,

Hope you are all well !

Unfortunately, I have nothing new to post & have given myself a lot of thought about how to continue ...

 

Like many other colleagues, Friends & builder here, I have presented my basses & my bass bridges here & everywhere in the social media, answered questions and much more ... unfortunately it is a rocky road, not only for me, but for many others worldwide.

 

The bass community worldwide has not changed much, new innovations / basses / amplifiers / hardware has been introduced, marketed & some have made a big impact on the world market.

Some innovations were presented & unfortunately never becoming a success! Others, on the other hand, have redesigned / copied something and have a firm seat in the bass community.

 

The big ones are & will always be popular, continue to sell worldwide what the company founder designed over 50 years ago (never change a winning product)

 

Basically, it makes no sense to continue if the recognition and success are missing. But many friends, colleagues & myself  continue anyway and believe in what we do every day.

 

I wish you all only the best. Peace & Love

The new EVO Bass Bridge substantially improves the transmission of the string vibration, in order to improve the sound and simultaneously to prevent the danger of injury and any possible dirt deposits.

 

The solid base body of the EVO Bass bridge has, for each string, an EVO Cam, wherein the axis of the cam extends perpendicularly to the string axis. The EVO Cam is rotatable within the base body for carrying out the vertical adjustment of the string. Each EVO Cam has a string through bore which extends perpendicularly to the EVO Cam axis. The base body also has a through bore which is in alignment with the string through boreof the cylinder.

 

A string intonation tube, through which the corresponding string extends, is mounted in the string through bore, to be adjustable in longitudinal direction of the string through bore in order to adjust the length of the string.

 

The vertical adjustment of the string is carried out by rotating the EVO Cam. The adjustment of the tension of the string is affected by adjusting the string intonation tube. In accordance with a preferred feature, each

String intonation tube is fastened in the respective string through bore by means of a threaded connection, so that the tension of the string can be adjusted by screwing the intonation tube into the EVO Cam or out of the EVO Cam by a certain extent.

 

Due to the fact that the string intonation tube has, because of its shape, an elongated bore in the direction of thestring, a large contact surface area is available for the string at the points where the string enters and exits the string intonation tube. Thus, a continuous increase of the inert mass is obtained from the first contact point of the string with the string intonation tube, where the string enters the intonation tube in the direction toward the instrument body.

 

The solid construction of the base body of the EVO Bass Bridge leads to a good pick-up of axial, vertical, and horizontalvibrations. The way the string extendsthrough the string intonation tube to the end point of the string at the base body results in an essentially three-dimensional string suspension which picks up and transmits in each direction of vibration in an optimum manner.

 

In summary, the EVO Bass bridge provides a better transmission of the string vibrations to the resonance body, while simultaneously increasing and extending the sustaining period of the string. Moreover, the adjustment of the height of the string and of the tension thereof can be affected in a simple and reproducible manner. The construction of the EVO Bass Bridge is clean and counteracts the danger of any injury or contamination.

Presumably extending the tubes changes height as well as string length and vice versa. Do you find this interaction makes setting up more fiddly?

The same interaction is on all traditional bass bridge on the market.

Having tested the last 30 years a lot of different Basses & Bass bridges ,I've never found an evolution in Bass bridges Hardware, except that den L-plate bended Bass bridge from Leo was upgraded, more massive, etc... but the principal function is since more than 50 years still the same ....
