Atkinson basses new website and model

Yeah, the site is a bit flaky right now. It might not work 100% until tomorrow. I'm still tweaking.

The "Evoke" series will be somewhat more unique, and slightly more boutique in design. Although still affordable. ;) I'll have the first one completed in about 3 weeks...
 
I'm really curious about the new Evoke. I was planning on ordering a custom J Bass towards the end of this month...already chatted w/Dan about it. Now I may wait to see what the Evoke has to offer. As long as it doesn't have a fugly headstock...I do love me some "lawsuit" headstocks...
 
Update:

I've received some emails asking about the Evoke basses. They are almost ready. I decided to expand the line to 3 models. The first model is already finished, the 2nd model should be done in about 3 weeks, and the 3rd will be done in about 4-5 weeks.

I will probably go ahead and announce the Evokes once model 2 is finished (about 3 weeks).

The designs have obvious Fender roots, but slightly different. Fender does not have any basses with these pickup configurations in their current lineup.
