Making a Sub-Octave Bass for Nate Navarro - Workshop sounds, no talk
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- Finally, It's completed! We started work on this collaboration project more than a year ago, we postponed it a couple of times due to other projects and workload but we managed to bring it to the end. We would like to thank Nate for giving us this chance to bring this project to life and create something new and unique. As you can already tell by the title, this instrument is tuned to an octave lower than standard tuning. To achieve this we had to lengthen the scale and order custom made strings just for this project. We used similar design we use for our spring bass model but with more intricate wood combination. We used maple, walnut and mahogany. You can see the details about the guitar throughout the video, just don't forget to turn on the captions!

It’s amazing to see how my bass came together! Thank you so much for sharing your talents, Gurgur and Gustav. The bass is a real treasure. 😁🙏🏼
Can't wait to hear you play it!!
It was our pleasure to build this bass for you. We are very glad that you like it and hope it serves you well for years and years.😁
Really, your talent deserves instruments like this ! Hope I 'll reach the point I share ideas with a luthier or manufacturer !!!
You are so lucky to have such a beautiful bass guitar. I could only dream of having that. Gurgur and Gustav made you an Excalibur. Organic lower tones sound so much more fulfilling than an effect.
@@lignumchannel how much would it cost to build one of these?
It's a tiny detail, but I really like the little loops that hold the strings on the headstock. An interesting alternative to string trees.
This bass is sick! And I saw Nate Navarro playing it, so heavy and so grave! Thank you guys for this video, God bless you all and greetings from Brazil! 🇧🇷
WOW! An electric octobass! Can't wait to hear this in action!
and ------ I was not disappointed!! Awesome work guys!
Slugs in the garden, my favorite part of the build! 😃 Seriously, though, I'm a bass player, and I appreciate the time and craftsmanship it takes to create an instrument that's a work of art like this one.
The stand is as unique and beautiful as the guitar! Bravo!!
😁glad you like it! The making of the stand is somewhere on this channel too;)
Glue is the unsung hero of this build. Amazing how the layers of wood can be subjected to such stress and stay together.
Fantastic build.
I love the variety of machinery you guys use. You guys clearly take care of them too which is great to see
We try🙂 some of the machines like the old jointer are around 100 years old..
@@lignumchannel Keep them going :) wayy better than the ones they build these days. I run homags for a living, those are pretty sweet. Do your arms run straight g code? or an interpreter of sorts?
I was impatient for this one, and I'm not disappointed !
😁Glad you like it!
Yo, this guitar is sick. I thought you guys were already just guitar builders before seeing the house build series. Super awesome stuff. \m/ EDIT: I just realized this build is for Nate Navarro, mind blown. :)
Just watched the demo on Nate's channel. Disgusting, just disgusting... ;) \m/
I hope that as time goes by, the guitar business becomes a major part of our work.. I'm glad you like the bass! Thank you😁
Wow 😮 Even the trussrod was made in-house 😳 Talk about custom…
It's a joy to watch craftsmen at work! Though I can't help but think in a few years they'll be raising their work surfaces to save wear and tear on their backs. But...I'm that old, lol.
Outstanding craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing. A beast of an instrument for a beast of a musician.
For me, this kind of videos are PEAK ENTERTAINMENT ❤️♥️
Wowwww, Well done, a truly custom bass. Everything done in house amazing 👏, what I like the most is thinking out of the box 42 inch scale, beautiful design, overcoming the legacy boring designs. Well done again, keep on the good work and surprise us more in the future.
Thank you so much 😀 yes this build was a challenge. We had our concerns about a lot of things but in the end, we think it turned out great.
It's a true masterpiece!!
Dudes! You have a clamps hoarding issue! 😆 Great job luthiering that epic bass for the excellent Nate Navarro.
Amazing job!!!
The author does like to from scratch, ruclips.net/user/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
you folks have the coolest shop tools
Koji ste vi carevi!!! Svaka cast. Pozdrav iz Srbije
I so wanted to hear it played at the end…
You can see the whole video of it play on Nate Navarros channel, link is in the video description or 10 seconds before the end on end screen links.
Yay more videos
As aways an innovative and beautiful bass
Thank you! :)
Kalium, the string company, has a 40 inch (1016 MM) scale bass they call the Quake that comes in both single and multi-scale options. I assume it was originally made so they'd have something to get a good tension to be able to show off the 0.266 gauge string that they make
So this is how the things I always wanted looks like.
I wonder how much would it cost with cherry wood as base.
Oh, man! It sounds AMAZING. I never heard a sub-octave bass and after all that manufacturing runtime it sure was cool to hear somebody play it. Watch as I hurriedly post my Steinberger L-2/5 on eBay so that I will have the funds to purchase one of these SUPER AMAZING SOUNDING bass guitars. Wow! Are you in a band or do you just employ those mad bass skills as a session player. Again, thanks for being the first time I got to HEAR such an amazing SOUNDing instrument.
Sounds great
Where do you even get strings for instrments like these?
can yall make more?? I want one toooooo
Contact us on info@lignum-art.com and I'm sure we can work something out:)
Absolutely beautiful work of art.
Thank you very much!
Just fantastic! Thank you so much.
Nice instrument for the great player
Real piece of art ! But i'd like to ear it !
Beautiful build, my only recommendation is that instead of lining the pockets with "silver" foil, use copper, and solder on a ground wires that can be connected into the electronics.
The guitar is absolutely spectacular. Are they special pickups, or special strings?
An amazing work of art. I'd love to own that bass even though I don't play bass! ✌️
Sounds so cool, amazing guitar
Fukin play it next time
Link to a sound demo is in video description
What’s the stringh height at 12th fret?
From building houses to Bass ...Bravo....plz make a 7 sting guitar too 😁
I'm sure we will one day;)
So… would you potentially make more of these if someone were to want to order one? 👀
Of course, You can always contact us on our mail info@lignum-art.com
That is a bad ass instrument. Wish they would have played it.
Link to sound demo by Nate Navarro is in the description. Also those 3 music pieces you could hear in the video are played on this bass.
Bunch of questions. Why no carbon fiber rods in the neck? What are the scale lengths? How many frets? What are the string gauges? Where did you get strings that long? Which fret is the 'straight' one? Hope you will take the time to respond!
Cool, now do a six string fretless version of this!
"Relatively affordable" CNC wood working is an amazing achievement. How much longer (and more costly) would an instrument like this take to produce without it?
Impressive.
Strap lock locations are more functional on the back of the body.
sick looking bass, wish i could have one!
ASMR! Awesome!
Wonderful bass. Have you ever looked into resin casting for the knobs?
Sooooooooooooooooo cool!
Looks to me like someone got their hands on an old furniture factory, door or other big wood item facility. Dang!
Absolutely beautiful build. If you guys turned up the rapid feed speed on your CNC (when it is moving in between cutting passes), you should be able to quite drastically decrease how long it takes to run.
Whoa, what an awesome instrument, didn't even know these were a thing.
On that note, that finishing process where the router takes more time lifting and repositioning than cutting pains me. What CAM program do you use? You could set it that the tool stays down the whole time and just circles back for the next cut (no horizontal lifting motion) or you could even let it do climb cut and conventional cut passes alternatingly, which is fastest but might not give you a the desired surface finish, so use with caution. Hope this helps you optimize your process.
Yes, this is a prototype but hopefully we will build more. 😁As for the milling, after years of working on a robot and testing all the speeds, feeds and milling methods, I concluded that the best surface finish on wood is achieved when tool always goes in the same direction, and the total time on the project is also the shortest. It would be faster milling part to have it mill around without lifting but I would have to make additional extensions on 3d model where tool would change direction, otherwise it would leave a mark which would take more time to sand and leaves less precise surface. This is more of a problem on a robot arm than our cnc because it is not as rigid as cnc and each direction change is quite noticeable especially at higher speeds . The plus side is that robot hand can move up to 2500mm per second ( I never go so fast because I just feel it's not safe or good for machine, usually set to about a meter per second) so time in the air is a fraction of total milling time. Setting up the 3d model this way would usually take more time than using just down cut and do something else with extra time while machine works. Although for instances where we have multiple identical pieces, I agree it is the way to go. I suspect if we buy more quality cnc with lead screws instead of gears on x and y, marks from direction change would be much less of a problem.
@@lignumchannel I think you're misunderstanding, in my CAM-software (Fusion 360) it's just a setting that makes the cutter move through the air on the same z-plane to get to the start of the next cut instead of lifting. I found that this works a good bit faster. No need to model extra geometry or something like that. If your software doesn't have this though then I have to excuse myself.
To naši! Jeben bas💪
gotta love that natural feel and looks of the wood! what kind of finish did you guys used here?
Are any of those tools from this century? That stuff was built to last.
Wow - contrabass guitar!
have you tried normal octave strings on it? so its the same scale length and octave as a double bass?
I need this bass
gorgeous!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Hey man! Thank you for uploading the video, but next time can you skip the welding part? It will let some people let me feel sick when we watching the strong flash like this.
I wish I could have heard it played.
You can, nate Navarro made a video about it, link is in the video description.
I'm not much of a bass player, but I want it. Kinda wish it was a 5 string, though.
Great video guys!!!
Thank you very much!😁
Okay, let's hear it.
What scale length and gauge of strings are being used?
When can i purchase this bass?
You can send us an inquiry on our email, info@lignum-art.com We will reply you shortly so we can discuss all the details, materials, finishes, electronics, time required, price etc.
How much would you guys charge for another one like this? Whats the price range, circa 2000 EUR??
Nice video great idea. I was however expecting to see an acoustic base why idk.
Maybe one day.. ;)
Where can you buy a sub octave bass guitar
Yesss
Any bass can become a sub octave bass with big enough (diameter) strings. Kalium makes strings up to. 200 I believe. For reference, my average low B string is a. 135...
But the max B string length is 37" currently on most high end basses even then the string would be sloppy as hell and muddy. This is 42" or something crazy so the added bridge length helps with the string tension.
Use a CNC machine to carve out a laminate a few thousandths at a time, hand sand and finish, install the finest hardware... but the truss rod looks like it was made in a high school shop class.
It did get an electrolysis treatment, though....
do you do 5 and 6 string basses....
How many clamps do you need？ I need 1 more
5:02 What's the tune you whistle there? Great work!
What's the lead time? I want one
Great video, enjoy your work. Question, how do you program the robot, g-code?
I use rhino-cam for rhinoceros and irbcam . It's similar to any cnc but with few extra steps .
Great instrument, i have already seen the video from Nate, and great work / craftsmanship. On thing i would have changd, the 3D printed knobs. The FDM Printer structure looks IMHO unnecessary cheap on this amazing instrument. I already have noticed this on Nate's video. However, 3D printed knobs using resin printing would look much better. And even my super cheap and small Anycubic Mono could do this.
odlican bas! svaka cast! pozz
Monstro!
one that looks wonderful, two that sounds wonderful, three how much? and can you incorporate twin humbuckers?
Красотааа! Ещё бы послушать как она звучит!
Shit...I am a guitarist, and I still want one of these. Put the "doom" in Doom Metal.
nice
Exquisite....
Thank you!:)
Omg! Slap it!
Wow
I call it a Super Contrabass it's an Octave below a Normal Bass
Nice. 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Why this length?
My MK1212 sub barely registered the bass in those tracks!
I wouldn't be caught DEAD playing that thing.
So, umm, how much for a 7-string fretless version? Y'know, in case I win the lottery someday.
How much I want one
WOW!!!👍
What kind of CNC is that?
We have two kuka kr150 robots and alpha cnc
How do I get one? 😇
No sound demo?

This bass looks like it's Prarie doggin'.
nice job
Thank you! Cheers!😁
