I chatted with the proprietor about the Wolfbox. He seemed very knowledgeable and was dead set on making something extremely high quality and faithful to the original. His products look like they reflect that mindset! I'd love to get the B15 Preamp.

More pink basses are always welcomed. What a beauty!

It does seem to have the original bridge. The “G” sting intonation screw is extra long.

Wow, this body is amazingly cool! Looks great with that vast and featureless unlined fretless neck!

This lines up with what I read about ‘74 bodies. The little cutout under the bridge also fits the timeline from what I can tell. It’s certainly possible, as others have mentioned, that it has had another refin prior to becoming natural, as well as having some contours “softened”. The finish is...

Found a great deal on this bass last week. It was listed as a 1974 Precision, and from the limited photos in the ad, it looked promising. The body had been stripped, and the original pickups were gone, but the price was low enough that it felt worth the gamble. I figured it would already be sold...

I dunno, I heard pink is for girls. But I did have Jake Serek make me a Lincoln in “Flamingo Pink” from a 1957 Lincoln Premier! So maybe that’s a myth. Honestly though, I love it.

Putting this beauty back up for sale, I need to make some room. It’s seriously an amazing instrument for the money. Easily rivals much more expensive gear.

Everyone most likely knows what this is by now! Super fun and unique envelope filter with built in fuzz. Extremely usable throughout its range. Looking to trade for another filter or fun effect of some kind. Prefer analog over digital. Prefer smaller brands and domestic production to overseas...

Genzler Amplification 4 on the Floor Classic Bass Overdrive. Four overdrive “gears,” HPF and LPF for overdrive signal, clean blend. Excellent condition, used only at home, box and insert included, with Dual Lock on bottom. Interested in filters or overdrive or other unique pedals. Hit me with...

Hah! It seems this is only because they were going after some Fender market share with a more “conventional” offering here. Unfortunately, didn’t seem to make much market impact for them either way.

That is the greatest name for the most normal bent steel bridge ever. Hah! I really dig the TK300 too. So unusual looking. The pickup is killer for sure. It has a distinct character.

Funny enough, the neck plate just covers over the actual neck screws which are super thick flat headed wood screws.

My friend and bass teacher (@rockin3quarter) was recently telling me about the very interesting 1970s Gretsch Committee basses, and it led me down a rabbit hole of Baldwin-era Gretsch oddities. Not more than a few weeks later, I found this on Marketplace and had to make it mine. It is a 1975...

This is a beautiful and eye catching Italian instrument! These are not easy to come by, and punch way above their price range. Boutique bass features for a fraction of the price. If only it allowed you to play like Richard Bona... This bass is extremely well balanced and comfortable to play...
