TeresaFR Posted Friday at 22:45 Posted Friday at 22:45 I'm curious whether there are any basses out there that combine all three of these characteristics, and not simply one or two? There are clearly a growing number of multiscale headess basses, but I've never heard of any that were also neck-thru - maybe there's a technical limitation that would prevent such a construction method? So, I thought I'd ask all of you; does such a bass exist, and if not, is there a scientific reason why not? Thank you. Quote
itu Posted Friday at 23:20 Posted Friday at 23:20 No, there are no technical limitations. This has all the features you asked for: https://www.kdbasses.com/basses/rev-ii-5-string-multi-scale-headless/ 1 Quote

Wolfram Posted 17 hours ago Posted 17 hours ago They are a rare beast, but absolutely no technical reason they can't be made. Kiesel's Vader Bass ticks all the boxes with the right configuration, and if you go custom built then Sei and Shuker definitely make them, as I'm sure could many other luthiers. 1 Quote
Hellzero Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago If you like like challenges, there are also some fretless headless neck through multiscale basses out there too... Nothing is indeed impossible. Quote
binky_bass Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago And make it a 9 string bass... with triplet strings, so a 27 string... double neck. So 54 strings... fretless, headless, neckthru, multiscale... Quote
