Classic Arcade Bass Porn

What makes these basses so attractive?

Is it the 11 strings? The matching wood pickup covers? The individual saddles on the bridge? The fanned fret layout?

No, it's the tributes to Joust and Pac-man. Just genius, that is.

Check out the inlays on the fretboards and the custom Pac-man knobs. Excellent attention to detail.

And yes, the 11 strings and fanned frets make the basses pretty attractive, too. But how many remind you of some of the most classic video games of all time? Just these two, really.

In the past few months, the #lnjf show had Bootsy Collins, Meshell Ndegeocello & Victor Wooten sit in w/the Roots. I'm happy. Just sayin'. 17 hours ago

I own amps I love to use, but I also love not moving them & using a perfectly good rig elsewhere. Glad I know folks who make it happen. :) 2 days ago
