ABSTRACT:
A stringed bass machine is disclosed in which vertical bass guitar strings are struck by hammers and are not plucked or strummed. An electrically operated upright piano action receives power from an external control box having an on-off switch. A musician can operate the bass machine by means of a remote keyboard and/or pedalboard. A unique sound is derived from an acoustically insulated soundboard, which encloses the guitar strings and piano action.
