It is hard to believe unless you hear it. Yes, an upright bass made out of a cardboard box! Bogdon introduced this unique product about 4 years ago and it has been a hit ever since.
Recently, the History Channel aired a show featuring this bass and folks are going nuts ordering them. Listen to this video and you will understand why!
What is unique about the box bass is that it really follows no traditional practices used in upright bass construction. Basically it is a box with a stick on it and a pickup attached to the bass that sounds great and plays much better than anyone would expect looking at it.
For 119.00 + freight you can have this shipped to you, put it together and play upright bass. This instrument has inspired many musicians and inspiring ones to play bass. Of course it is not the same as the traditional upright bass, but is close and fun. Not to mention, it is hard to argue with the price point to get started with it.
So check it out and order one today!
