Ya, Last D.A. I saw was about 1974. It was a bass, but was short scale so
the intonation was problematic. It was heavy. The owner went from that to
a Rick.
Though making
an enclosure and buying the switches (that can handle
being
stomped) would probably cost as much as a premade controller anyway. Are
you going to add any other controls? (pots or other programing kinds of
things) or just use presets?
I bought some cheap switches and I've got some broken things lying
around and my ultimate goal would be to make a simple USB-MIDI
footswitch with some extra knobs to adjust parameters. But that will be
a long term project (two kids, solderingironophobia). Is that a Dan
Armstrong? Or does someone else make clear (and very
heavy)
body guitars?
Answered this in another mail. In addition, there are some manufacturers
that use PMMA/acrylic/lucite/perspex bodies. The most well-known at the
moment is ECG (Electrical Guitar Company). They have two lucite
signature models with aluminum necks (how awesome is that), the Brent
Hinds (Mastodon) Custom and one of the coolest contemporary guitars, the
King Buzzo (Melvins) Standard:

They look nice. How easy is it to keep them clean? Or are finger marks not
visible more than 5 feet away anyway? Says 9 pounds... I haven't weighed
any of mine...Hohner (the jack) headless - 7lbs - Rickenbacker bass - 10
lbs - squire katana bass (ex rental now fretless) 7.3 lbs So weight is not
an issue.

Ampeg has reissued the Dan Armstrong model so you can still get them.
They're way more expensive though. But they're beautiful guitars with
the double cut and the interchangeable pickups.
I never clean the body, still looks good after like 4 years.

Yes that's also possible. There are even PCB designs available of MIDI
expansion boards, maybe I'll take a look at that. Apparently it's very
cheap these days to have PCB's made.

Just a quick note:
I got my M-Audio Fast Track Ultra 8R working with the pi following the
wiki. It's a USB 2.0 device.
Thank you!

The new bass looks like it has a longer scale than the one I saw. The
player had one of the old ampeg folded horns... couldn't hear it on any
stage we used... couldn't get far away enough.
4001, got it used in 1976
