Bass Porn for Today

This is a double bonus, because it’s both a beautiful instrument and it originates from a local luthier, GW Basses from Grandon Westlund, the “Bass Kahuna.”

Ents love this bass.

I love this particular model for a couple reasons. First, it looks like it could come from a Tolkien forest. Second, I’m a sucker for the single cutaway design. Not only does it seems like more body mass (which in turn usually equals better tone), but something about the body shape just works for me.

    Hmmm…. trying to figure out if that’s a stained figured maple or some cool wood that I just haven’t seen before. In any case, it looks a lot like a Tobias design.

    According to the website, the contents include “ebony, purpleheart & birdseye maple neck, alder body wings w/ buckeye burl top.”
