Hello
everyone!
I am
selling my unique KD "Lava RB” 4-string bass! Long time keeping it in
personal collection. In perfect condition. Never owned. Used only for
exhibitions and studio records.
Below is
the full technical specification (copied from my website)
……….
Lava RB, 4-string pure handmade bass
represents another viewpoint which I have about how I see a boutique bass and
the combination of functionality and art. I built this bass model giving
freedom to my imagination, which somehow affected my dreams.
I had a dream where I saw this bass and the only thing I had to do was to make
it. The bass has a specific Arch body profile, and a lot of additional features
that make it unique and one-of -a-kind. One of the basic aims of this handmade
bass is to be elegant and comfortable for playing. The body and the contour are
designed to give the performer freedom in playing and full free access to the
27-th fret.
Technical specification:
Body: The bass body has an original,
unique and stylish form. For designing the backside of the body I have used a
completely new idea and style. A small arch-shaped channel for separating the
two book-matched Maple pieces makes the style more expressive and contemporary.
The channel in the middle reveals more details of the body and neck
construction. The wood I used for the top and backside of the body is an
extremely rare, heavy figured, red spalted burl Maple. The top is not just an
ordinary top, but a semi-hidden neck-thru. The core of the body is made of
solid Walnut and two types of veneer application -- Walnut and Maple. The
electronics box lid is made of wood with the colour and texture as close as
possible to the ones of the body. The specific Arch body profile is an option
rarely seen on neck-thru basses or guitars.
