Welcome to our NEW VibraWood Custom Shop Pro builds - the new Vintage Tone Monster bringing you the best of both worlds at a performance ready balance & weight! This is a hand made Custom Shop instrument finished in Nitro Lacquer Custom Color Raven Black. It includes our Superlite Paulownia wood body with a roasted Maple neck, Rosewood fingerboard, pearloid dots, Hipshot ultralite tuners, Hipshot brass bridge and custom wound vintage voiced pickups. We use a NOS vintage paper-in-oil capacitor from Ukraine in the passive custom hand wired tone circuit. This instrument includes a full foil shielding application to the inner electronic cavities. Very lightweight, balanced and resonant, this bass has that low mid growl, punch and presence heard on the best recordings throughout the 60's, 70's and 80's! These basses typically weigh in around 7.5 to 8 pounds, and are ready for stage and studio performances. Hard shell case included.
We are producing these as our version of vintage Fender instruments made in the 50's. 60's and early 70's. Highly sought after original vintage instruments can bring well over $10,000 and taking them on stage and into studios is a serious risk. These Custom Shop instruments are light weight, resonant and have the feel, playability and tone of the old treasured instruments. They can be used for touring and recording without the risk of loss or damage.
