Re: Guitar-sized acoustic bass: retune CGDA?
I owned a Taylor GS Mini-e for about a year or so. I really enjoyed it. They are a great little acoustic bass. Sold it to a guy who played bass for a bluegrass band but due to an injury couldn't play an upright. I went with a u-bass because I liked the sound better for the kind of music we play, plus you absolutely can't beat the portability.
Somewhere I have seen where a chap used a Taylor GS neck to build either an OM or a mandocello. It may have been on this forum. Don't know about using the whole guitar.
-- Johnson MA-100 Mando
-- Eastman MDO-305 OM
-- 3 Seagull Merlin dulcimers (2GDG, 1DAD)
-- 1952 Harmony Roy Smeck guitar
-- Ortega Lizzie Ubass
-- Leigh Campbell electric violin
-- Pfretzschner violin
-- Glaesel viola
-- Ibanez acoustic/electric guitar
-- Misc: a cello, 2 cigarbox guitars, charango, djembe, slide dulcimer.
