The Whamola is a single stringed electric upright bass with a pitch lever. It was made famous by the great bass player Les Claypool.
This is the 42" scale, Deluxe upright string model (5'3" to 6'1" overall length with adjustable end pin). The Deluxe features a hand carved scroll on the lever. Whamolas are hand crafted one at a time per order. My Whamolas are built to last forever and come with a beautiful hard lacquer finish. Each has the signature bass sound with unmatched growl and sustain. Only high end parts are used. Passive pickup, friction-less bridge, Gotoh tuning machine, Thomastik string and volume control.

So many people come up to me rhen they see it and wonder what it is. It is awsome I can get so many different sounds and tones out of it. I love my whamola. Thank you Brin for creating an excellent piece.

A spectacular piece of work that inspires jealousy in all musicians who see it!
My Whamola rests between my banjo and my Prince cloud guitar and it is always the first thing visitors are attracted to - DUN DUN DUN DE DUN DE DUN DUN DUN!
This is a solid instrument that's easy to play basic rhythms on. With dedication you discover that it's capabilities are only limited by your imagination!
