The Design

This one is my wife's favorite because of the sleek look and thumping sound. The zebrawood shimmers with bronze highlights in the sunshine and has a golden honey look at other times. The high gloss look catches the eye and that beautiful Maccassar ebony fretboard is a centerpiece in and of itself. I am also a big fan of Wenge and was able to balance this exotic wood so that this bass is still light weight and can be played for hours and hours. This is one of those instruments where I actually don't think photos do it justice. You have to see it's glimmer and hear its growl to really appreciate this one-of-a-kind beauty.
