Short-scale (32") EB-inspired bass with super-rich lows; 12th-fret body join, slotted headstock with re-machined Hipshot tuners, bloodwood binding, Dunlop 6000 fretwire. Built as one-off commissions in 4-, 5- and 6-string (collapsed to one model). Standard 4-string uses matched EB-style pickups + additive volumes (no tone); documented commissions vary — the 5-string carried Joe Barden humbucking Jazz pickups + pistachio cap, the 6-string (serial #720) EMG pickups, Macassar ebony cap, jumbo frets and a Kahler 6-string vibrato. Hand-built in Chicago; commission pricing (no list price).
