After 40 years of grooving exclusively on a J-Bass, my customer sought a fresh sonic palette — a Precision Bass that could channel the deep, punchy vibes of classic funk while boasting a custom vintage aesthetic. This build wasn’t just about creating an instrument; it was about forging a connection between tradition and personal expression.
