Construction of the Bass Guitar
There are 2 main parts to the bass
guitar; the body and the neck. The material used and the
construction of the components play a major part in creating the
sound. More importantly, they form an unchangeable part of the
sound. That is to say, you can change pickups, strings, effects
and amps but you cannot change the body or neck. That is why it is
important to choose a bass guitar that is composed of the materials you
prefer.
Bass Guitar Body Materials
Wood Body Bass Guitars
- The most common material for the body of a bass guitar is wood.
Tried and true with years of service, wood bodies are usually made from
alder wood. Ash was originally the wood of choice but alder wood
became widely used in the construction of bass guitars because of its
ease of use (easy to fill pores).
Composite Body Bass Guitars
- The main reason for using other composites is because the guitars can
be made by die-casting. This allows for mass production and gives
total shape/style control to the designer.
Bass Neck Materials
Maple is the most common wood used for a
bass neck. This is not to be confused with the bass fret
board. The fret board is usually rosewood, however, other
materials such as ebony are good choices.
