Aye on May Custom.

Shawn is making some ridiculous basses

Not sure if you are interested in custom instruments or work on existing ones, but if the latter, Tom Pellerito (near Ypsi) is beyond excellent.

There should be one there named Zoldos Customs. He's up and coming and has a alot of quality and excellent craftmanship. Do not know where he is exactly located but try a search.

i heard that maybass guy has no talent, rips off everyone else's good ideas, but makes a hell of a sloppy joe...btw ppk, i remember you! i followed your first build. its guys like you that make me wonder why i even bother. you're 17! I couldn't even spell base gitar when i was 17! Great work! We need to get together sometime and frequent some of the SE Michigan wood mills, and bring that 6!
