ABSTRACT:
A floor mounted electric bass instrument which generates a musical signal in response to depression of one of its strings against an appropriate fret. The instrument is compact, yet it provides structure for spacing the strings a substantial distance apart to permit quick and convenient selection and depression of a desired string by a relatively large or blunt portion of the musician's foot while avoiding operative contact with adjacent strings.
