For sale is my May Custom SC5, 5 string bass. Dated March 2015 and is #48.
Built by Shawn May. Shawn has built basses for Jon Stockman from Karnivool, Tye Zamora from Alien Ant Farm, Phil Lipscomb of Taproot and A.B. Quintanilla, brother of Selena and touring bassist for Jennifer Lopez. Shawn's website address is May Custom Basses: Welcome
This bass was built for me and took about 6 months to build. I selected all the woods, hardware and electronics.
The twelfth fret inlay is a symbol which means remembrance.
The two micro switches are for the side markers and the back lit logo.
The truss rod is the same as what's used in Pedula basses. It turns the opposite from what normal truss rods turn.
The B and E string are thru body to add extra tension. Although I found that I didn't need to use them as the B string is awesome and sounds like a piano.
The action is very low with absolutely no buzzing and plays like butter.
Hard shell Road Runner case included.
I am letting it go because since I got my Axe-FX, I don't play bass much and am looking at buying another guitar.
