It stands to reason but still really interesting how, if given 'infinite' choices, people have such varied tastes in what a bass should look like.

I have this on order. Short scale.
I love how everything on the Jake and Elwood configurators is available in short, medium and standard scale.
Is DaveTheDude a nickname for Adrian Maruszczyk?Agreed, they absolutely stand out in terms of customer friendliness! While not charging exorbitant prices. Yet, their build quality is compared with much higher priced instrument manufacturers.
It stands true![]()

Man, i seriously recommend you try a Maruszczyk. All things considered there are very few custom basses with such a degree of quality and fine craft for the money. My 5 cents only but i'd be very surprised to read a disappointed dude owning a Maruszczyk in this or any other forum.
You won't regret. These guys not only build excellent basses with A1 components but, most importantly, the playability of their instruments hooks you right after the unboxing and for good!I will be reading up on some reviews and watching some video's over the weekend. I don't have the funds for a new bass currently - and no band to provide at least some sort of "spending money" but these are not crazy prices so if I lay off the beers and CD's for a while I should get somewhere soon![]()

I am now toying with a Jake where I prefer a non-matching headstock on a flamed maple, transparent Cherry burst glossy body.
This sentence is weird ...
Don't think you've dodged it for long.....I seem to remember seeing somewhere that the Frog is the next bass due for the configurator.....Whew! Dodged a bullet - only available for two models, the Elwood and the Jake. What I'm GASsing for is a blue Frog Omega headless fretless 5 with the big oval Delano quads. drool
