Santucci TrebleBass
Musician magazine (August 1994): “The Santucci TrebleBass by Santucci combines standard guitar and bass strings onto a single neck … Bass players who double on guitar (and vice versa) will appreciate the freedom to leave one axe at home, while fretsmen with a bent for exploration will enjoy the ability to cover all registers from deep bottom to sinewy twang.

“Bass and guitar pickups terminate on separate outputs and can be switched on and off independently.”

Chitarre magazine (May 1989) says: “Vi ricordate lo Stick? Bene, non e la stressa cosa, ma lo struttura lo puo ricordare.

“Lo strumento preso in considerazione e un basso/chitarra constuito da un liutaio italiano: Sergio Santucci. Ha 10 corde, di cui le prime sono da basso e le altre sei da chitarra; I pick-up sono due: uno legge le frequenze basse, mentre l’altro, posto al di sotto, serve per codificare il segnale della chitarra.

“Chiaramente l’accoratura prevede una paticulare attenzione!

Santucci TrebleBass -

The easiest entry into touch-style playing, it’s a guitar and bass on one neck. Good sound, lower cost, nice looks, smaller size. (Scale length of 27″ compared to Stick or Warr scale lengths of 33″)

“L’effetto che lo strumento produce e davvere interessante, aspettiamo di sapere chi lo distribuira. Sergio Santucci, della cui invenzione si sono gia occupate brevemente Guitar Player e Guitar World, puo essere contattato ai seguenti indirizzi:”
