Making a Five String Fretless Bass - Custom Neck Thru

This bass will be shipped to a customer in a few days time so we have a few more days to play with it :D. Body is our spring bass design and the head is something new. Neck is made from wenge wood with white oak veneer. Body is American walnut and white oak combination. Finger board is made from black ebony and oak veneer strip. Markings and bass clef are milled and filled with white epoxy. Nut is made from whitened bone. Glue we used for neck thru block is "Patex" pvac and "titebond" for fingerboard. For the finish on this one, we used few coats of "timberguard" teak oil and bees wax. For the first time we used our new laser engraver and we love it! Hardware that we used in this build is: Schaller Bass BM tuners, 3D-5 bridge, S-locks strap buttons. D'Addario ETW92-5 strings. for electronics we used Fishman fluence 5-string Bass soapbar pickups combined with Schaller under bridge piezzo with Fishman powerchip preamp. Total weight of this bass is 4.2kg. It was a fun new build with a more natural wibe. Special thanks to Luka Kovač, Nikola Radovanić, Mitja Kać, Ivan Tibor Grujić and Luka Tomić for letting me use one of their songs for this video! Links to their social media will be added soon (they have to make it first ;).Also thanks to Krešimir Klen Fish for playing at the end of the video! :) I hope you like this project as much as I do! :D

I've played Bass for over 40 years and music for over 50 years, and I would Love to play that Fine Bass for Many Hours and Days. 🎶 💓
