Cardboard Bass

As a personal design challenge, I designed and built a fully-playable upright bass. This is constructed with corrugated cardboard of various thickness, a fiberboard paper roll tube, and 3D-printed machine heads and tailpiece, utilizing polyurethane strings designed for bass ukuleles. With a clip-on piezo electric pickup on the bridge, the instrument can be amplified.
