This week’s BotW is all about the “it” factor, and Kee’s David Pushic 6 definite has “it.”
Kee Writes:
I have been playing my DP custom 6 for a year now and I have to say it is the best instrument I have ever owned!!! I have played just about every top of the line bass out there and NONE are able to match what I have found in my Dave Pushic 6. Everyone from band mates, choir directors, sound engineers etc. have told me this bass has the it factor. They love the tone the beefiness and most of all the clarity of my bass. I would describe the tone as a cross between a pre-gibson Tobias and a Ken Smith. I can honestly say this baby is gonna be around for a really long time!!!!
Specs:
- Cocobolo top
- Quilted maple body
- Flamed maple, walnut, cocobolo neck
- Birdseye maple fingerboard
- Cocobolo peghead
- Hipshot B-style bridge
- Bartolini pickups & preamp
- 19mm string spacing
Kee’s bass was definitely built right and is sure to provide many years of enjoyment. Thanks for sending it in, Kee!

I have to say Kee is right. Dave made a bass for me back in 2005 or so — a five string. The neck is incredible. The sound is huge, the price very reasonable, and it is an incredible instrument. And, I own four Alembics, including a series 2. Dave was easy to work with and I would have him build me another bass in a second.
Beautiful Bass Kee congratulations on finding your sound/instrument. What model Bartolini pickups and preamp have you installed?
Hey thanks !!! I have the MM56C w/ 5.4 preamp.
I just got 5 strings from person on E bay only 2 month old exactly your model and I just replace Sadowsky pickup instate North Jazz pickup. Sound totally different and i love it. but one thing the fret edge hurt my finger and I need to file them. Your bass so nice.
I think that I have that 5 that you mentioned, Sadowsky & Aguilar preamp, hipshot bridge?
