Handmade electric
I first picked up a bass at the age of 15. Over time I formed a sound and style; my own signature approach to pop, soul, Brazilian and Brit-rock. After years of playing I developed a sense of what a bass should and could sound like, as well as focusing on what it is meant to do. Each instrument I make is lightweight and balanced, has a striking design, and projects a deep, clear assertive sound.
Please contact me and discuss what you are after and I will make a bass for you. No CNC machines, no pre-made necks or bodies are used. Ever. Each is hand shaped and no two are exactly the same. Hardware and pick-ups are carefully chosen to complement the sound and vibe.
It’s a sort of alchemy. And it works.
