Based on
my daughter's design, a Chicken bass features some common basic
options that represent the evolution of the bass guitar in the last 60
years.
|
Offset contour body
- the lower offset has been centered on the right leg according to a
medium sized player, moving it versus the bridge to allow a
better sit down playing position
Slanted peghead - increased string tension over
the nut and give better sustain
Neck volute - to augment sustain and neck / peghead
junction stiffness
Bone nut - great tone on free strings
Two-way twin rod - best correction and stability
String through & top loading bridge - choose your
sustain
Perfect balance - best playing position, always
Vintage steel frets - better intonation and longest frets
life
Fluorescent side dots - visibility on dark stages
18 volts active circuitry - more headroom and presence
|
And some just aesthetic features:
Headstock veneer matching the body wood
Wooden knobs matching the headstock veneer
Wooden control cavity cover
