Have been an electric bass player for some time and am owner of a furniture manufacturing set up. Mechanised. I am pretty skilled at woodworking so ; I have wanted to make an electric upright bass for a while now and recently on a trip to Spain I managed to get a tailpiece (3/4) , a bridge (3/4) and a set of Tyrolean style brass machineheads ...

If you want to play upright, start on upright because if you start on electric, it will be a pain to learn an upright because of the size and position (again, vise versa).

The sound of an upright is a different thing. I don't think an electric pass pickup will ever get you there. String length is a big part of it, as well as ...
The Jazz Bass sound IS the regular Upright Bass/Double Bass with or without an amp.. Everything else is a compromise.. You need seperation between notes and the String Bass (aka.. u know!) is perfect for that..
