Version 2.2
Meinel und herold bass
My god, what a thing!!
Bought him for almost nothing including the original case, but al wat was left of the padding of  the case was
some loose filling.
He has been at my house for a few years but never came to finishing it, until now, the bridge was missing and
the tailpiece is not original same for one of the knobs.
1 pot had died but for the rest everything worked perfectly, the pickups have a quite low output but still
growl nicely, the fretwork is terrible and all screams cheapo east european guitar.
But the neck beats all, the mother of all necks, sombody was building a fence en flattened oneside, thats the
only reason possible why the neck is so incredible fat.
It’s simply monstrous fat, doesn’t has a trussrod but don’t need one either, the neck is fatter than the body !.
Also the neckjoint is unusual, only 2 bolts, but it works perfectly, the body is most likely elder atleast it’s no
plywood.
Minding the vinly covring he’s build somewhere in the 60’s clearly something for a collector, or a bassplayer
with extremely big hands who want to make a fretless bass out of it.
