I built a bass guitar for my daughter (6 yo)

My daughter has been in every single one of my videos since I started this channel in early 2020, and she always steals the show with her sassy comments. The reactions to her jokes have been overwhelmingly positive through the years (as in, literally every other comment is about her and not the guitars ...........). Now it was time to really put my bossy child to work, so we decided to build a bass for her. In this build she made a lot of decisions: the color of the top, fading from pink to natural, is her idea, as well as having 2 sizes of fret dots, she chose the colors for the knobs, the arangement of the neck laminate, ... We went for a u-bass design because I was affraid that metal strings would hurt her fingers (turns out I was wrong, I later made a regular bass, and it makes no difference). The body has that classic Tchiks shape, turns out it was very easy to adapt to a bass, I just had to bring the upper horn closer to the 12th fret. Making this bass just after the Red Special was a funny coincidence. Brian May made his famous guitar with his dad after all. Needless to say, this was very very fun to make. And I’m very pleased with the results, and so is Zoé, she LOVES that bass and plays it all the time. I guess I’ll be making more basses for her in the future, as her body grows. For the French Polishing part, I literally had no idea of what I was doing, so if you want to learn more about it, just check the master: @CranmerGuitars There will be more basses on this channel in the very near future, in the form of a tutorial on “how to make a Precision bass“, in the style of my previous tutorial series (how to make a Telecaster), so stick around! As always, Thanks for watching, Bisou, Tchiks
