I made this bass for UK Bassist Scott Firth. I was elated to have an opportunity to build such a bass for such a guy. Scott has great taste, this is a beauty of a bass and played unlike anything I've got my hands on. Last time I heard from Scott he was enjoying the bass and I hope it continues to please and inspire him. Spec are-

5 string singlecut bass of my own design, but clearly going for a fodera vibe, walnut body (slightly chambered) with a koa top, quartersawn maple neck w/ an ebony fingerboard 24 frets no radius (Flat), bartolini dual coils, ebony finger ramp, nathan east u-retro deluxe preamp (BEAST!!), hipshot B bridge, gotoh tuners....think thats it. It's pretty much my dream bass, was hard to let it go :( And sorry for the terrible video and lighting, but its all i've got of this bass. Shipped it over to the UK last October.

  • Hi Torrey. Just to let you know that the bass is all over the new PIL record - it sounds fantastic! I'm verry happy! I'll send you a copy when we're done. Hope you're well. Scott :-)

  • @scotmus Scott! Great to hear from you, and even more so to know that you're still enjoying the bass. I remember starting this bass almost a year ago now....Looking forward to the PIL album and I'm still spinning the Usonic album on my ipod regularly. PM me when you want to send it though as my address has changed. Thanks Scott, made my day to hear from you again!

  • Scott you are realllllllly great at bass. Not just great, your original, you have your own sound and style. I love that.

  • @AlexKalicinski Thanks Alex I appreciate it, and by the way I'm not Scott...that's the guy I built this bass for, who happens to be a great bass player indeed.

see all
