Aash basses guitars are made by choosing the appropriate wood for the features and the quality of each bass guitar. The wood is a living piece of matter that has its own message and we allow every piece of wood to express itself in our basses.
Each piece of wood is hand made and crafted to make every bass special. We like to let each distinct piece of wood guide us during the shaping process so that every bass guitar is unique.
The bass shown makes its deference due to hand crafted wood assembling work. This added to the beauty of the quilted Sapele natural color top wood and the amazing sound it provides.
