I admit up front that the only reason this was chosen for bass of the week is because it looks cool.
Scott emailed us with his latest bass build. His email was really short, but I guess in this instance it doesn’t need to be long. It read:
This is the latest bass I built. Frequent customer, 1st time submission.
– one piece chambered swamp ash body
– 1920’s embalming fluid crate top
– Fralin Split ‘51 P
– reverse Tele neck
And yeah, I know I just wrote about how stupid cemetery photos are, but this is one of the extremely rare instances where it’s actually okay:
…but if it were up to me, the bass would have looked cooler if the photo was taken inside the back of a Hearse. 🙂 Still, a cool bass regardless.

Drop dead gorgeous! I’m sure the neck is very stiff.
Does it sound “dead”? LOL!
It would look cool in a casket….kind of lying in state.;..
I’d carry that around in a coffin case!
And I suppose that it’s “rigor”ous to play!
I suppose it’s rigorous to play!
Does it come with a coffin case?!
Great lookin bass, love it
have you played “live” with it yet?…….
It looks like these comments need to come to a dead stop.
Good work Scott – glad to see it getting broader exposer (fellow tb’r)
