Upright Basses

I have made seventeen 3/4 size upright basses, and have an interesting and innovative take on the tradition design. I have added a most useful handle, and a cutaway, making the bass quite a bit shorter than the normal ones.


Custom order only, default is carved Poplar top and Baltic Birch back and sides. This is the only instrument I make that uses any laminated woods.


42" scale, 1,2000.00 minimum four mounts to make, cannot be shipped, must be picked up at my shop. Sorry, but that's the bass biz.



Aromatic Red Cedar Top. A little more fragile than the Poplar, but a little better sounding.

Yes, I make Lefties too. No extra charge.
