Tom's basses are always amazing, constantly find myself drooling over the 2 he made for Paul Turner especially his full on white bass. Absolutely beautiful!

Hey Scott, thanks for bringing attention to smaller bass builders! I couldn’t tell if there was any sort of shielding under the electronics... I’ve heard mixed reviews, but how do you feel about shielding routed out cavities in the body? I’ve got a buddy that copper tapes every guitar/bass he owns, because he believes it helps with overall tone/feedback issues. Anyways, I’ve got my fingers crossed during this giveaway for lifetime SBL membership so I can continue to learn from the best.... but I’d take a Sire jazz bass too lol! Keep up the great work!

Pavel E. To each his own, I like the look of the natural bass but when he started playing the white bass my ears perked up and I instantly noticed that I was listening more intently. A “Jazz Bass” tone like Geddy in my humble opinion. I would never buy a white bass but, that’s just my personal preference. Cheers!

Very exciting to get the new Basses! They are very very Cool looking!! Soooooo... ... Scott... you need to get a kit and build a Bass for the fun of it. Learn some ways to change aspects and make it your own creation. Maybe make it in “The Shed” I don’t know?! 🤔 I’ve built a few Guitars from bits a pieces I’ve picked on line... and they have come out great! Your build would be something really Cool to talk about here... aaaaaand... you could build two and give away one to promote that which you promote. Bam! Win Win!! Who wouldn’t want a Bass you made?! Who, I ask you?! 🤷🏻♂️✨💫🎸🎸‼️

While i waited for it to arrive a used a spring loaded capo and it worked wonders.

so with one of the settings being a quieter, less aggressive sound, is the humbucker a tapped pickup for the entire humbucker with the ability to split into either single coil? (before i get "tapped and split are the same!" they aren't tapped is essentially stopping the winding on the pickup part way through to provide an option with less windings, splitting is actually being able to turn a humbucker into a single coil...ish.

All very well but a lot of the generated sound is interpreted in your head. So if you think something will sound different then it will. There have been many blind studies done and even experts fail to spot differences if they are not able to see the instrument. You generally purchase a new bass because you want another!
