Product Description
Description
One of the instruments we made a name for ourselves with was our Tele Bass mods. If you've been on here, you've seen our work. In development for a year now was our classic series, which pays homage to some classic designs done in a boutique fashion that no factory could ever do.
These are built both on spec - like this
one - and to order, completely from scratch. We do everything in-house.
If you have something you envision, call or message us for a build
template. Check our websites for past builds.
These all feature a single piece of solid, choice swamp ash or alder with spectacular grain, a hand-carved, hand made 4 piece neck with a back of quarter-sawn flamed maple/mahogany/flamed maple back for amazing sustain and stability, your choice of fingerboard wood, and several other options including pickups, hardware, custom finish, etc. They have a base price of $2900, and depending on options go from there.
This vintage tobacco burst was inspired by a Zenith Zephyr we had in for repairs last year, where the tobacco color comes in real far. We hand mix all of our colors and stains, and first we highlight the grain, sand it back so its just in the pores, then hand apply the stain directly to the wood. This gives the finish a depth that is amazing. Done in traditional 100% nitrocellulose lacquer, it's breathtaking in person. The double tortoise binding with the caramel swirls accentuates this.
The real feature of this build is the neck, and we selected the flamed maple back to match the birdseye fingerboard as close as possible. If you prefer the sound of a one piece maple neck, this provides that with a FAR superior sustain and evenness of tone due to the 3 piece laminated back. Stained at the same time, and clearcoated in nitro, it is truly a work of art. Genuine black mother of pearl side dots complete this. I think this is the nicest thing we've got in here right now.
We hand make all of our pickguards so they perfectly fit and contour, and this B/W/B with vintage slot head screws really sets it off. Lollar Vintage Single Coil P-Bass pickup (we cannot say enough about this pickup), Hipshot tuning machines and bridge, high end electronics with CTS pots, Switchcraft jack, vintage cloth covered wire, our special shielding for dead silent running on stage or in the studio, and a hand cut bone nut and immaculate setup to your preference. Serial number TB00008-16.
This bass comes with a hardshell case and free shipping to lower 48 (call us for overseas shipping), all for a measly $3140.00.
This is a very special instrument.

Other Stuff
This
instrument features a hand cut bone nut and professional setup. If this
ships
to another climate, just like any instrument you buy anywhere, it needs
to acclimate to your climate before it settles in. We do all our own
fretwork, and we dress and level the frets so it plays better than
anything you can buy in a store. We also will do adjustments to the
buyer's preference. We don't have to do this, we do it so you get the
highest level of satisfaction from us. We let our instruments sit for a
week so they can settle in, then do another setup after that, as well as
play
the instruments to make sure they are perfect. If you favor
an unusual string height or spacing, it is YOUR responsibility to take
it to your local tech to do this unless you ask us ahead of time to do
it for you. Product will be professionally packaged and insured. No
returns unless unit is not as specified. We only sell top quality items.
This is no exception. Payment is expected upon purchase, paypal or CC.
Happy shopping! And remember - if you didn't have music, what would you
do?
