I love the challenge of a new design and I have been working on ideas for an acoustic bass guitar for a number of years. It is coming together now and I would like to share the story along with a build thread. I have played acoustic basses and am well aware of the design challenges and less than stellar results usually achieved, so I have reached out to every resource I can and have been very excited by all the help I am receiving. This really got going when I was approached by Graham Maby to build an “acoustic guitar”. You may be familiar with Graham, he is the bass player for the Joe Jackson band and in the early '90s toured with Graham Parker, Garland Jeffreys, the Silos, and Darden Smith, among others. In 1996, Maby joined They Might Be Giants recording and touring with them. From 1998 until 2002 he recorded and toured with Natalie Merchant's band. Maby has also appeared on recordings with Marshall Crenshaw, Joan Baez, Freedy Johnston, Ian Hunter, Regina Spektor, and Dar Williams. So I said, “Do you mean an acoustic bass guitar?” “I’ve been working on a design for a number of years now.”

The first thing we had to land on was a name for the new bass model. Let’s review: My small jumbo is called Josie. The grand auditorium is Greta The closest model I have to a parlour is Penelope Graham wants a bass. Graham’s cat’s name is Bella. There, that wasn’t so hard!
