Will there be 1 pickup models? I always enjoyed the simplicity of the old ventures basses.

Hey guys!

The 63 and 65 Customs are ready to roll. We will have the website updated the the next few weeks however, if you would like a bass now, we can take care of your order directly.

Here is a pic of the prototype 63 Custom front and back. We have made a a couple of minor changes from the prototype. A. we use a machined string guide now as opposed the the fret wire guide. B. We went to exposed pole pieces for the pickup design. C. We widened the bridge so you can get exact intonation, which was not easy on the original basses as well as employed our locking saddle design for sustain.

Here is also a pic of our good friend Hugh McDonald warming of for a show with Bon Jovi with his new 60 Custom bass.

Thank you for your interest!

Well, coming from a guy that would want to cram as many pickups as possible into a guitar...I really love the single neck pickup look on that sunburst model. Sexy and elegant!

Oh one more thing,unlike the prototype picture here, the 63 Custom is now a side jack.
