This is a tunable bass guitar - that I am going to add to Knex band.
You can actually get a tune out of it and it sounds much like a bass (However i am not a bass player so i wouldn't know well).
I managed to get 'Smoke on the water' out of it and it sounded pretty realistic, however all the videos i took on it do not sound like it does in real life - you can't really tell much difference between this and a drum kit in them.
It has four strings, and although being a bass it looks nothing like a real one - so maybe i should call it a harp.

Haha, yeah, you did the impossible alright. That's cool. If you decided to play bass, I suggest you start of with an iBanez. Those are cheap and the quality is just perfect. I do, actually. My Facebook is "Petrov Iliaj Cravic".

Haha nice. And I believe that "tuning device-thingy" is called an amplifier.

no that´s not it... it´s a tuning device to tune your bass guitar to the right tone.

Oh. So not an amplifier? Hmm. Given your vague description, I don't think I can help out much, sorry.

I cant believe NO ONE knows what it is called. It''s called a tuner, unless it's a cylinder. Then it's a pitchpipe.....we need better music classes

so you can actually hear it. take an acoustic guitar for example. what is the wood? a shaped box with a circular hole at the top.
