Walnut Twin Pickup 4 String

 

This bass features a 3 piece bolt on neck of maple and mahogany. The body is ash with a walnut top, the fingerboard is Madagascan rosewood.

 

The neck pickup is an EMG 40P, which is essentially a precision pickup in a soapbar casing. I have positioned this more or less in the correct precision position which gives a classic, familiar sound - the bridge pickup is an EMG 40DC for a more powerful, modern sound.

 

The hardware is by hipshot, with both the tuners and bridge constructed from aluminium.

 

Other than that the usual zero fret, 34" scale, 20" fingerboard radius, thin body ( 1.25" thick ) and thick headstock ( 17mm ).



Bass on Greek TV

Here's some good footage from Greek television of one of my basses in action with the group Onirama. Have a look at earlier posts to learn more about the bass.

Cocobolo Through Neck

A new bass being picked up by it's owner, Neil, at Bassday 2011 in Manchester

Cocobolo Through-Neck Bass

This new bass is the first through-neck instrument I've made in a while.

The neck is maple and wenge, with body wings of ash fronted in a lovely orangey cocobolo.

The neck binding and position markers are also cocobolo.

The pickups are hand wound ( by Wizard pickups in Wales ), and complemented by an extensive control system comprising of two volumes, passive tone control, active 3 way tone controls and the four switches select betweem active/passive, series/parallel and humbucker/single coil.

New Walnut Bass

Here's a closer look at a recent bass, as modelled by it's owner Sanjay.

Maple neck ( Birdseye for the fingerboard ), walnut body with maple accents, and a lovely figured walnut top. Hipshot hardware, pickups by Wizard and a Kent Armstrong active circuit.

Here's your's truly and friends at a recent trade show.

Newest instrument here is the bass second from the right. Walnut and maple throughout, and another slimline body making it weigh in at only 7.25 pounds.
