This doozy of a BN6 left our shop doors last week and we miss seeing her around.

Our customer Richard ordered his custom neck through with a Walnut top + matching pickup shells & finger ramp, a 5 piece Maple & Bubinga neck running from head to toe, and gold hardware.

Here's what Rich had to say over the weekend:

"The bass is everything I had hoped for and more. The action is the lowest that I have ever experienced on any bass. The build quality is totally through the roof, every time I look at it I'm completely blown away. The custom neck profile that I asked George for was accomplished perfectly. I tend to use the entire neck when I play and I was worried about going from a 5 to a 6 but I'm finding that playing even above the 12th fret to be simply effortless due to the thin profile he created. I also love the use of gold bits everywhere matching the bridge and tuners, very smart touch.

It was definitely worth the wait! Please be sure to pass my praises onto George and Crew!"

Hey cocobass, bolt-ons and neck throughs offer different tonal characteristics. One is not necessarily "better" than the other, it all comes down to personal preference. Generally, neck through construction lends itself well to a warm tone with great sustain and bolt-ons offer more punch, focus, and versatility. Many other factors come into play when trying to bridge the gap between the two...quality of construction, wood selection, finishing material etc. Hope this helps.

Hi I'm the Richard mentioned in this video and this bass is mine. I have been playing F-Basses exclusively now for about 5 years and spent much time working with George to design the perfect bass for me and my playing style. After a 6 month wait the bass arrived two weeks ago and frankly its even more than I had hoped for.
