A request to all that send in instruments to featureme@bestbassgear.com<\/a> for Bass of the Week: Please name your basses<\/strong><\/em> if it’s not a name brand, because we keep having to name these things. And remember, players like it<\/em> when the bass has a name to go by. Name your custom build after yourself or your company name (if you have one), or give it a name by build date such as B-130501, etc. If you want your bass to really ‘stick out’ more, name them<\/strong> (especially if you’re a shop that sells custom models to customers!) Thanks in advance. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I ordered a few pieces of hardware through your shop, and this is the result: <\/p>\n

Tuners, trussrod, a modified Nordstrand MM5.2W pickup, a Nordstrand 2B MM preamp and some small other things. <\/p>\n

We ordered the buck eye Burl through ebay. All the mahogany is some very old, very dry wood. <\/p>\n

And the maple runners through the neck are from an old painting frame I had laying around in the shop. <\/p>\n

The result is a stunning instrument, which I am very proud of.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It is definitely a stunning instrument! The wood is so well done that you actually notice it before<\/em> seeing the guitar has fanned frets on it. Well done, Stijn! <\/p>\n
