Hi

I am the owner of one of Wreck basses made by young Croatian luthier Danijel Kopjar.
These basses are really something special and I needed to share it here.

As I am informed, he usualy puts Dolezal custom made pickups in it, Noll electronics and Schaller hardware (or anything you want - I've put Ken Smith pickups and U-retro electronics).
He also makes "vertical pyramid system" bodies to make basses lighter and with more sustain.
And he makes the most beautiful finishes.

Here is link to his facebook page: LINK

And here are some pics of Wreck Basses:

Du bel ouvrage !

C'est quoi l'interet des "pyramides" dans la hollow body ?

(si quelqu'un peut traduire)

I translate the question :

It is what the interest of "pyramids" in the hollow bodysuit

Posted

I talked to luthier once and he said it has something with acoustic sound of bass and woods, sustain, and obviously reducing the weight...
For more info please contact him clear.png:D

I have used google translator and it translated just like you :D

Nice :lol2:

En gros : il a demandé au luthier et il lui répond que c'est pour l' accoustique du son avec les bois et bien sur la réduction du poids

What an interesting work. On these pictures, the global finition seems very subtile and glossy. What would be the price range in euro ?

Jolie travaille!!!

Si albinokiller met ça dans google trad, ça va faire du dégât

These are gorgeous basses indeed, I'd like to know about the price range as well... the designs and finishes are stunning!

Posted (edited)

I think prices are around 1300€-1500€...but you must ask him that...

He is really doing great finishes...look at this one (in production-could be seen in his Facebook page)

Il y a un peu de "peau d'orange" ( pour faire mon chieur ) sur le vernis, mais la couleur est sublime.

Le travail sur la hollow est impressionnant.

Le concept est intéressant.

A voir si cela permet de ne pas avoir d'impact sur le son comme les chambrages plus traditionnels.

En tout cas le boss est très réactif, il répond aux messages sous 48h, avec enthousiasme.

Il m'a expliqué utiliser du "cherry wood" (cerisier Americain) comme bois de corps, qui selon lui propose un son équilibré,similaire à l'Aulne...
