11. Diego Stocco - Experibass
4 months ago
UPDATE 12/17/09: I played the Experibass on Hans Zimmer's score for Sherlock Holmes: bit.ly/81dfYX
More info and pictures here: bit.ly/8J9ymg
Few weeks ago I visited a luthier looking for instruments parts, I had an idea in mind for an instrument I wanted to build. My curiosity was to hear the sound of violin, viola and cello strings amplified through the body of a double bass. I came up with a quadruple-neck experimental "something" that I thought to call Experibass.
To play it I used cello and double bass bows, a little device I built with fishing line and hose clamps, a paintbrush, a fork, spoons, a kick drum pedal and a drum stick. I hope you'll like it!
Thanks to luthier John Wu for providing me the parts, even though I warned him that I was probably going to create a "monster" : )

I played the Experibass on Hans Zimmer's score for Sherlock Holmes, take a look at this: bit.ly/8J9ymg
@ Tinderbox, for now I started with this video, but I'll let you know about future ideas! : )
So good, from one (kinda) instrument!
Much respect. You're a true innovator. Very uniquely done.
My mothers boyfriend would have loved to see this, he was one of 4 Master violin builders in Holland.
(unfortunately he passed away recently)
and at 02:05 i´m going totally of the hook here.
Great Work Diego.
BRAVO
