GUEST,pickup	Tech: A Cardboard Box Upright Bass video (14)	RE: Tech: A Cardboard Box Upright Bass video	14 Jul 06
the cardboard bass isnt as loud as a normal Upright Bass, i couldnt gig with LOUD instruments without the pickup. I'm not sure why, or if it'll be possible to get more volume. I've learned quite a bit from other bassists offereing me their oppinions. I've added a soft wood bar that is attached directly under the bridge and presses tightly up against the back of the cardboard bass body as to allow a flow of resonance to get sound off of the back. It's an improvement, but still isnt as loud as an acoustic guitar.
