Weird bass @ Union Sq.

ユニオン・スクエアで見かけたヘンなベース。ベースおたくは、写真をクリックしてヘッドが切れてることと、写真では分かりにくいけどテイル・ピースの付け根が10センチぐらい飛び出ている事に注目。（前者はただ持ち運び用に長さの節約のため、後者は弦のテンションを軽減するためと思われます）。音量はそこまで出ていなかったものの、ちゃんとアコベの音はしてました。


A Weird bass at Union Sq.. Its shape is really unique but the sound was actually the sound of an acoustic bass, not the sound of one of those silent bass or baby bass. Hey fellow bass-freaks, click on the pic and take a look at the head and the tail piece. The head is cut off for the portability and the edge of the tail piece is moved five inches forward by putting a piece of wood on the bottom of the bass to soften the string tension. The volume was not as loud but I think it's a better alternative of the full-sized bass.
