Normally Fred Bolton is known for doing Extended Range Basses, mental bodies, amazing necks... This is no exception!

!

Bay-Bee Bee Bass Ultra-Short 23.5" scale length tuned E-C natural bass octave, not an octave up!

 

The Bay-Bee idea was an idea of mine, Fred's and a couple of other guys of the ultimate in headed travelling bass!

The specs that weren't standard that I got him to do...

His own custom pickup (Absolutely AMAZING)

23.5"scale

15.5mm spacing

Locking Jack

Curly Walnut top and headstock cap

6 bolt neck

Specs:

Oak body
Curly Maple fretboard and pickup cover
2 piece Maple neck and headstock
BEE split coil BuzzBucker pickup
Passive electronics
Wilkinson tuners
Individual string bridges
Kalium strings 102-076-057-043-031

 

It's light, Schaller strap locks.

 

THIS THING IS KILLER, I only recommend coming to try the bass to see just how amazing it is!

 

£600 bargain steal! it almost cost me that to get it into the country let alone the cost of the bass! CASE NOT INCLUDED SHIPPING at buyer’s cost

 

Trades for Fender Flea Jazz bass

something if the graphite variety

funky basses

half off your Allen&Heath QU desk

(can add my Vintage V4004b) 

 

Cheers,

 

BJ

Stop it! Not telling!

I travel quite a lot gigging... and me and the misses are looking at placves to go for a couple of days... Did I mention the set-up is to die for and you can use the top 5 satrings on a 6 string set and keep the B for your conventional 5 strings...

Just to double check, does this play in the normal bass register? Are the strings unusual to make up for the short scale?

It’s in normal bass register. E-C! 

 

You can use normal strings on it. The gauge I used are above! Basically near enough the top of a 6 string set
