The One and Only Everson Strat

So..here's a rarety. I'm not in the habit of recreating existing designs, but a good friend asked me to make him a Strat in walnut and here it is.

It has a pau ferro board, with dots in maple. Piezo bridge, flamed maple neck and a single piece of black walnut for a body.

New Basses

This bass, modelled here at a gig by it's owner Simon, is extremely light weight. All the hardware and trim is aluminium and the body is very slim at well under 1.5".

It is based around the Nouveau Simple design, has a maple neck and fingerboard, english cherry body, Hipshot hardware and pickups handwound by Wizard.

New Basses

Here's the first bass of 2011..

Swamp Ash, Maple neck with Birdseye Maple fingerboard and a Rosewood scratchplate.

This bass features a handwound pickup from Wizard and gold hardware from Gotoh and Hipshot.

The 12th fret inlay A50D are the initials of the owner, Andrew, who commissioned this bass for his 50th birthday.

In complete contrast to the simplicity of the last guitar is this fancy bass.

The body is predominantly walnut, with a central wenge core and a maple accent.

The neck is my preferred combination of wenge and maple with an ebony board.

Handwound bulldog pickups in handmade wooden cases, brass inlay work and hipshot hardware.

And here is the happy customer, Charlie - cheers Charlie, I enjoyed making this bass a lot.

Here's a nice straightforward guitar in Ash and Maple. Bulldog pickups, Gotoh Hardware and thats cocobolo backing the mother of pearl logo.

This is the latest bass out of the workshop.

A fretless 35" scale, this instrument features a unusually narrow neck (36mm wide at the nut and about 19mm thick at first fret) and a custom made humbucker from Bulldog.

The woods are African Walnut for the body, maple and ebony neck,figured french walnut, ebony and brass trim.

The Nouveau Simple is proving a popular design. This version in ash and maple, with ebony plates, inlays and neck binding is shortly off to Greece and into the hands of Dionisis Frantzis, bassist for Onirama ( http://www.onirama.gr/ ).

Dionisis asked for an inlay on twelth fret. The triangle logo ( based on the Greek letter D ) is made from both white and gold mother of pearl set in ebony.

This bass also features hand wound pickups courtesy of Hayden Minett at Bulldog pickups - and rather excellent they are too.
