I love the look and sound of these basses and they seem to be very well made, but there really aren't very many custom options available on their website. You can choose the color, color of the hardware and either a P or P/J, but not much else. Fretboard material, fret size and particularly the make of the pickups (all Aguilar as far as I can see) would be nice. They do say on their page that they are adding options so we'll see. For the price they're at I would still grab one as is if I could afford it.
Here in europe there are many luthiers, top notch to be exact, that will build you a custom (down to the millimeter custom) for 2K euro. And at this price we are talking necks made out of bubinga, wenge, purpleheart, panga panga, exotic species of ebony or what have you. And also in this price. Top shelf electronics and hardware. The fact that america is only now starting to have competition in this segment is rather sad. No amount of man skill and talent and hours justify an instrument priced over 2500. As long as cnc is involved and expensive woods can ve bought for under 300 400 euros... Sorry. Other than this rant. Cheers to the builder of this fine instrument . Great job
@@ashgonza92 you’re paying a premium for anything anywhere but a custom instrument usually warrants that expectation so it’s nice when you have a business that can make custom instruments at NOT custom instrument prices
I can see that. Tbh it was an aesthetic “gripe” of mine also. Didn’t bother me much but I felt it looked like a Font of sorts. I think it’s cool but maybe the lettering or styling needs a look. Idk maybe a logo??? Idk
@@arcanesanctuary it really was a great introduction for me anyways to a P bass I wouldn’t mind owning and paying for. A custom instrument in this price range is unheard of. I hope we can get a 5 string P on here also.
@@ashgonza92 yea some of those are old prices he hasn’t adjusted yet. Reach out to him on which one specifically you’re looking at and I’m sure he would work with you ✌🏼🫡💪🏼
Really like the colour of the body with the pickguard,looks well build,sounds good,just that bridge is awful on a P,and the head just doesn't work for me! As someone else mentioned here in Europe we can have a complete custom bass for that price!

I like that. Real solid and punchy!
Great looking basses!
Nice looking bass! Sounds great too
Looks cool sounds like a pbass.
That's really cool! Need to keep this builder in mind for the future.

They have other electronics options. Just reach out if you have something in mind. It may not be listed but it doesn’t mean it’s not available!
Solid feedback thank you 👍
@@mcgrathguitars9692 please also add gold hardware as an option!

Name me one example of that luthier which isnt some random guy in Montenegro
Can you list these luthiers please.
You're paying a premium for something out of California

@@phipschi4255 mano guitars
That is awesome
Thank you!
Love it
What’s that strap ?
I was wondering the same thing
I wanna say it’s a Franklin
Great sounding still out of my range by a long shot. I got a cheap squire. So that will have to do.
i'll wait outside. ,you walk out ,whats that over there. and run off with my new p-bass. 🤣😂🤣😂.
Idk the logo looks nice up close but like a sticker further away. Sounds good otherwise

@@Therealchuckbailey yeah good price though for a solid bass.

Check: : Bite Guitars (Austria) and Anaconda’s Guitars (UK ) Europe . Price tag looks like +~
their berry bass looks great. they're really expensive though
In comparison to fender they are a bargain
Expensive???? Compared to what? I meant what I said and finding well built custom instruments in this price range is unicorn like in rarity.
@@Therealchuckbailey lol I saw the one that was ready to ship for $2500

Modern vintage are a better bass and build then these Walmart builds for less money.
Parts bass with a pick up for 1750 ? 😂😂😂
