	From Electric Bass to Double Bass (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Electric basses have an average string length of 32 inches, where double basses have an average string length of 42 inches (this can vary from 40 to 44, so if you are looking for a bass ask yourself: "are my hands big enough to play this instrument comfortably?")
		Where on electric bass all four fingers (pointer, middle, ring and pinky or 1-4) are used one finger per fret, on the double bass all four fingers are never used together because it would be impossible to play in tune.
		As you approach the octave harmonic (12th fret on the electric bass) the 3rd finger is substituted for the pinky (3 instead of 4) and used all the way into the highest positions.

	History Of The Electric Bass
		By the mid 1970's, the electric bass was the established norm of popular music and the upright bass was reduced to the status of "outdated relic" from a past generation.
		In fact, there was a belief among the Jazz elitists that the electric bass was "half the instrument" the upright was, in terms of the amount and degree of artistic expression that could be yielded from the instrument.
		He was one of the first bass virtuosos to call the "ELECTRIC BASS" his principle instrument (his favored instrument was a fretless Fender Jazz Bass), and sought to gain artistic credibility for the instrument.

	Electric Bass Guitar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The electric bass guitar is a derivation of the acoustic bass, which is used in classical music and was eventually used in jazz ensembles.
		The electric bass, however, is primarily used in rock, jazz, and popular music.
		The first solidbody electric bass was made available in 1935 and was labeled an electric fiddle bass because it was not the upright style--it was to be played horizontally.

	Building an Electric Upright Bass
		It was that mission that began my collection of links that helped to form the basis for the Double Bass Links page, which BTW has at least two links to guys who have plans available for their creations- I can't vouch for their quality.
		If your neck is thinner, electric bass style, that may require a truss rod depending on the depth and quality of the fingerboard wood.
		During my first re-do of the bass, I lowered the height of the tailblock to get more tension on the bridge (and to keep the strings in their slots), since it was much shorter than I had intended.

	Libellula Electric Upright Bass
		The other common method is to mount the instrument on a pin just like that of an acoustic bass, and to provide some sort of extensions from the body that emulate the points where a player's body would normally contact the instrument.
		In the Libellula bass I didn't want to use either of these techniques, opting instead to make the instrument wearable, that is, hung from the player's body via a strap.
		Spectrographic analysis of acoustic, electric, and electric upright basses has indicated that the key quality that distinguishes the tone of the acoustic bass is damping of the higher harmonics.

	Bob Gollihur - Eclectic Bass
		See my Electric Upright Bass maker links page for a bunch of EURB makers -- they were a great inspiration and source of ideas for me - there are some wonderful instruments available out there.
		The bass needed a little electronic and neck work, but is now quite playable with its set of Pyramid Gold flats, and I look forward to playing it for many years to come.
		Anyway, this bass has an interesting vibe, the fact that it is semi-hollow is more show than go due to the thickness of the top, but it is cool and does have some acoustic characteristics if you milk it.

	weedhopper.org - History of the Bass Guitar (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Among the first known bass instruments are the "Viola da Gamba" from the late 15th century which was over 8 feet tall, had 6 or 7 strings, and tuned similar to the modern double bass.
		From that point, the overall evolution of the double bass' size, shape, or tone didn't change much, although the number of strings found on these early basses could range from 3 to 4 to 5, and even 6 and 7 strings for hundreds of years.
		The electric bass and electric/acoustic basses are being played worldwide as well as electric upright basses large and small.
