cazzuola bass - trowel bass
a standard electric bass built on a wine crate. Its distinctive feature is a mason's trowel used as a string holder, allowing you to bend the notes like a vibrato. the surprising thing is that it sounds like a piano; the trowel produces a micro-oscillation that broadens the note spectrum, enriches the harmonics, and creates a very significant sustain. the railroad humbucker pickup is enormous in terms of dynamics and bass power.
depending on your touch, the mellow lows or the harmonic highs are enhanced; the instrument is warm and powerful, very sensitive, and very rich.
