This week’s bass guitar of the week has great looks, great function and a very interesting take on headstock design.<\/p>\n

For quite awhile I have wanted a bass with a tremolo, but I also like Drop D tuning; this is what I came up with. A friend gave me some big pieces of maple from a big leaf maple that his family was taking down a few years earlier, so I decided to use some of it. I like using stereo effects paths, so I chose a P pickup that has low noise even when split. The magnetic capo is a first for me, but it works great. Hipshot ultralight tuners<\/a>, recessed straplocks, and french polish finish round it out. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
