This week’s BotW that arrived in the featureme@bestbassgear.com inbox is red all over. Literally.

Here is the bass I recently finished. It’s my fourth complete build. It is a neck through jazz bass design and features an ash neck and body with a maple fingerboard and ”tone block” at the back of the neck where the body is.
I dyed the body red and used black grain filler on the ash. It got black hardware (much of which came from BBG).
Specs:
Bartolini Jazz pickups
Hipshot vintage style bridge
Hipshot string ferrules on the back
Gotoh tuners
SIT strings
CTS pots
Dunlop recessed strap locks
It plays nice and I like the Bartolini pups quite a bit.
Well done, Steven!

Very clean build. Nice, simple, and classic inspired. Fine job!
Sweet. Thanks for the props guys. I appreciate it very much.
Wow, if she sounds half as good as she looks … ya done good!
I like! Looks good.
That is so cool. great build!
SWEET guitar
Looks real nice. Passive?
Yes. It’s passive. I’m a simple person when it comes to electronics, and there is a pretty big variety of tones to be had with the Bart pickups. They sounds great and have a pretty high output, so they are nice and hot. Love them.
I applaud your aesthetics. I recently found a transparent red Jazz bass with a maple neck — your combination — and I had to buy it, because it was the prettiest bass I had ever seen. The same goes for yours.
