New Upton Bass

I just got this a week ago. Upton Hybrid Deluxe Bass.

I've been waiting a long time for a carved top bass. I do a lot of gigging so the laminated sides will offer me a little comfort with stability, but I finally have that carved sound.

I'm very impressed with its even sound for the price. Big full sound.

Go for it. They take a while for them to make them for you, but it's worth the wait. Great value.

Congrats! Looks really nice! Those hybrids really are a great value. Indeed, let's hear some clips.
