‹(•¿•)› 2-STRING FRETLESS BASS WashTub BLUEGRASS CIGARBOX GUITAR Joy-Stick 112

2-STRING JOY-STICK-BASS, WASHTUB, BLUEGRASS, CIGAR BOX GUITAR, JUG BAND, FRETLESS

MADE IN U.S.A.

Check out my Joy-Stick-Bass (I'm Steve Joy).
I woke up from a nap wanting to make a washtub bass, 
but I wanted to be able to fret it. This is what I came up with.


   JOY-STICK-BASS

I have just started selling 2-string on Ebay. I have made costume 2 and 3 string in the past.
The first two yearst I only made 1-strings but seems to be a calling for 2-strings. Played as an upright bass. 
They have a 2' removable extension - the 1-string does not have. 

This one features Chrome with Green - A die on top & like green felt finger board :

 • Redwood (Heartwood)

 • Wood stained, then clear coated 3 times

 • Finger board Green

 • 34" scale, same as full-size bass guitar

 • 48" overall length

 • 72" (6') with 24" extension (included)

 • Two strings (.100 "E" and .080 "A") USA strings.

 • Pickup is homemade single coil, running around .40 kohm

 • Shielded wiring

 • All wiring hidden inside

 • 1/4" guitar jack, mono output plug.

 • Wood bridge for great tone

 • Fretless neck

 • Very light at about 2 lb.

 • All hand made, including pickup

 • Shipping box doubles as a Guitar Case

 • Every Bass has a unique serial number stamped in wood and on it's Logo

THESE HAVE A GREAT SOUND! This one has a unique headstock of a Die.

 A fun, unusual, one-of-a-kind, folk-art Bass Instrument.
Be it a jug band or bluegrass band, the JOY-STICK-BASS
will fit right in and sound really great, even if it's a folk-art conversation
piece hanging on your wall. There is nothing else like it, and
it works. If you have a  cigar box guitar then you gota have one of these.
I have repeat customers. Coming back so they have a 1 & a 2-string.

No two are exactly alike. Presenting #112 here.
Made in November, 2015. (I have made over 100+ 1,2,3-strings.)
This one can be at your door in 3-5 working days.
 
I can do custom orders (Color, headstock, # of strings). 
EMail me from my web page "JOY-STICK-BASS.COM" if you have questions.
Please see pictures and check out the video (Of a one string) all the way through for sound sample.








Thanks for stoppin' by
Steve Joy

Got the bass today.  It really sounds and plays amazing! 
The upright extension works perfectly.  Thanks!!!
Jeff,
Thanks for letting me know.
I'm so happy you like it. That makes all the work worth it.
Have a great holiday.
Steve-
You too Steve!  Really though, the sound is blowing me away! and I actually really like the feel of the
instrument played upright.  With the detachable leg, I can rotate the body easily when I'm playing!

Dear 4stevejoy,
I just wanted to let you know that I am so happy with the joystick bass.
My husband will love it. I am always looking for interesting pieces to add
to his collection. Can't wait to give it to him. I will share this find with
other bass players and musicians I know. Thanks for the cool gift.
Merry Christmas

Dear 4stevejoy,
Hey Steve. Thank you, I received the bass. After a few minor modifications
this thing will sound just like an upright. I'll send pics so you can see what I've done.
I have cherry wood handy so I'll be using that to make a nut, bridge, and tailpiece.
That and a change of strings should bring the sound of this to almost identical to my upright.
Also a thin layer of felt under the piezo for keeping it from picking up noise from the body.
Thanks again. This will be much easier to transport than the upright.

Hello Steve!
Loving the bass. I added strap nuts so I can hold it like and electric and
will soon add a Fishman pre-amp for some more tone control. I haven't yet had
the time to make a vid but will soon for sure.
Thanks for checking in and cheers!
