Making a Sub-Octave Bass for Nate Navarro - Workshop sounds, no talk
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 січ 2023
- 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.
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.
So nice seeing a bass guitar being created. 👏👌🎸 Thanks.
Sub-Octave and fan fret, I'm speechless! Four years ago you all were just amazing craftsmen, today you are easily some of the worlds best custom guitar and bass makers! Every item is unique and every item is special, I can't wait to keep seeing what you all have planned!
😁not sure we are near the top but thank you nevertheless..we have so many ideas and so little free time hehe..
This is amazing. I am just beginning to build bass guitars, still in my living room putting together a shit-ton of saws in my spare room... It's an amazing journey and your channel is inspiring. This bass is a step in the evolution of the instrument. Congratulations!
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;)
The timing, just after i finished Rob Scallon's video on making an electric guitar --- BOOM, you upload making a bass guitar! 🙂
Excellent build quality, as always!
Thank you very much!:)
Always a treat to watch your craftsmanship
Outstanding craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing. A beast of an instrument for a beast of a musician.
Wow 😮 Even the trussrod was made in-house 😳 Talk about custom…
Amazing work. I'm blown away!
LOVE the no talking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a beaut of a bass!!!
Thank you very much!:)
I was impatient for this one, and I'm not disappointed !
😁Glad you like it!
It's a true masterpiece!!
For me, this kind of videos are PEAK ENTERTAINMENT ❤️♥️
Koji ste vi carevi!!! Svaka cast. Pozdrav iz Srbije
Gorgeous!
The workmanship is phenomenal, I bet there ain’t another bass like it, Am sure Nate will make it sound as good as it looks 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👌🏽🏴
Nate played the sound track.
Did you even listen?
@@carpediemarts705 👍 I did
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?
Beautiful bass. No expense spared.
Wow, absolute master, no mistakes allowed. Bravo🙌
That turned out beautifully. I never get tired of watching you take that raw wood and 😅turn it into something impressive like that. I also enjoyed the commentary that you provided, too. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thank you very much! Yeah, I think it's much more interesting watching with some info rather than just guessing what is being done on screen.. It takes a bit more effort but it's worth it.
@@lignumchannel We certainly do appreciate the effort.
Just fantastic! Thank you so much.
Amazing job!!!
Excellent craftsmanship! 👍
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.
What a wonderful work! Saw Nate's video, The thing is a beast!
It sure is! I wonder if that camera effect at Ziggo dome was added later by Nate or the sound waves messed with the camera hehe..
@@lignumchannel Looks like an effect added in post to me, but i'm sure the thing can shake venues ! (you made me look the video again by the way)
Awesome! Great attention to detail.
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.
Fascinating video!
Absolutely beautiful work of art.
Thank you very much!
this video trumps everything bro
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.
Beautiful bass and awesome job!!
Really beautiful instrument
Nice job dude, really nice tools...wow...
The author does like to from scratch, ua-cam.com/users/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.
Amazing skills from you guys. Absolutely brilliant.
Thank you so much 😀
An amazing work of art. I'd love to own that bass even though I don't play bass! ✌️
Yay more videos
As aways an innovative and beautiful bass
Thank you! :)
Nice work. I like the fret tang trimming jig. And silicone sealant in the trussrod channel is a great idea! Thanks for the video. Subscribed...
Sounds great
you folks have the coolest shop tools
I really dig the curvy veneer line on the body! Great detail!
I’m also impressed by the surface finish from the robot cnc router! On camera it almost looks like a finished surface 😄
Yes I think it lifts the design a lot. The robot can be very precise if you give it time to do it's magic. The more you rush it, less precise it gets.
Dudes! You have a clamps hoarding issue! 😆 Great job luthiering that epic bass for the excellent Nate Navarro.
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😁
I like the hanging bridge design. More should implement that even on more standard scale lengths.
Brother that thing is fkn gorgeous. What an attractive shape.
gorgeous!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I really love your builds. One thing I would like to point out is the glue you use for layering. As far as I can tell, that's PVA glue. Now, it's an amazing wood glue in most cases, but luthiers don't really use it for building and repairing, because of a critical property. When it dries, it stays just slightly rubbery. In construction or furniture making that is in no way a problem. However when you're building an instrument, that thin layer of soft material between the good quality wood can lead to dampening of the vibrations throughout the body and neck. A much better option for laminating would be 2 component jeweler's epoxy. It sets up super hard, so it would be the ideal material for transfering vibrations. Another good option is Titebond original wood glue. It is made of aliphatic resin, that has better properties than PVA. You can do a really easy experiment. Put a dab of PVA and Titebond side-by-side on a piece of wood, let it completely dry, then try to sand it. You'll find that while the PVA will gum up the sandpaper and shred, you can beautifully sand Titebond. I hope this was at least interesting for you guys, even if you stick with your methods.
Sooooooooooooooooo cool!
sick looking bass, wish i could have one!
ASMR! Awesome!
Real piece of art ! But i'd like to ear it !
Great video guys!!!
Thank you very much!😁
oh wow i really want this
Sounds so cool, amazing guitar
Fukin play it next time
Link to a sound demo is in video description
To naši! Jeben bas💪
Nice instrument for the great player
Monstro!
Wow - contrabass guitar!
The quality of cheap instruments went up a lot with the advent of CNC, and it's a lot of fun to watch one carve precious wood slabs.
odlican bas! svaka cast! pozz
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.
I want this!
Yesss
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.
From building houses to Bass ...Bravo....plz make a 7 sting guitar too 😁
I'm sure we will one day;)
WOW!!!👍
Exquisite....
Thank you!:)
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.
NICE.
Thanks!:)
That radial arm type saw is the most dangerous thing I have ever seen in a shop.
Nice. 👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Wonderful bass. Have you ever looked into resin casting for the knobs?
gotta love that natural feel and looks of the wood! what kind of finish did you guys used here?
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
stari,,tri dana gledam tvoja videa,,,,rasturas!!!!! zelm ti svako dobro i puno pozdrava
Really love what you have done with the magnetic access covers, great idea I'll have to try - thanx
Why did you make so many truss rods - please let it be so you can make more of these.
Does it have to be unique? Couldn't this be a prototype? If you were making mk2 what would you do differently? What price are we talking?
My attempts at the sub-bass concept failed miserably due to only increasing string gauge and not scale length.
What gauges are you using? To my mind hearing it the E0 could do with being thicker and under greater tension.
Seriously interested in this as product as well as this beautifully made work of art.
Wow
All right; off to buy a lottery ticket so I can get one of these.
jeee opet novi video pravljenja instrumenata
😁da da
The guitar is absolutely spectacular. Are they special pickups, or special strings?
It's beautiful. Both the knobs and the string loops seem like they should be better, higher-grade to be in keeping with the rest of the instrument.
Impressive.
Strap lock locations are more functional on the back of the body.
Mohini Dey should see this one
Excellent work
Thank you very much!:)
So this is how the things I always wanted looks like.
I wonder how much would it cost with cherry wood as base.
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.
Omg! Slap it!
nice
nice job
Thank you! Cheers!😁
Again, great work...
TBH, I don't remember have you been asked about how you introduce neck angle? Or everything is perfectly straight and neck angle substituted with bridge height?
We have a standard neck angle although we made a few guitars lately with straight head. The little hooks hold the strings down. Although I'm not entirely sure if we will continue with this design.
Where do you even get strings for instrments like these?
What suspension bridge did you steal those strings from.. Them are crazy fat. Beautiful and innovative build mates. Now I MUST seek sound demos for that beastie!
Cool, now do a six string fretless version of this!
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 .
