The Official MARUSZCZYK CLUB!

I'm gonna suggest a 4b- curious to see a rosewood board on it with those same inlays...

That's pretty sick actually. I'd ask for matching abalone style pickguard as well. This one is black pearl.
Here's an abalone pickguard on a white bass.

its just awesome how this went... I've just searched for it.

Back in Dec. 2006, i was the very first, who presented his brandnew Maruszczyk Elwood Bass.

Look what Santa has brought to me :-)

Hi Quality from the beginnig. So i think its just no Wonder that these Basses/ the Maruszczyk/Mensinger Brand became that popular and the Configurator is "evil" :D

...and now, after 5 Elwood Basses i wait for my Custom Joker-5. I am so exited. :hyper:

And there is was, thinking I was an early fan with my 2011 frog :D.

Love the way they've grown and that configurator is a work of genius!

This is my new bass...I just got it late last week. Seriously f-ing incredible! My go-to gigging bass is a Muckleroy HMC 4 neck through...this bass is as good, and that is a tall order! I LOVE this bass!View attachment 4070081 View attachment 4070082 View attachment 4070083


These Sputniks are seriously hot.

This would be rad; with the neck pickup set back against the bridge in the sweet spot. 33" scale, just on the $3k mark.

Yup! Whenever I have a custom bass made from scratch, I ALWAYS pull the neck pickup back!! 33" scale us also my favorite! I need a 4 string Sputnik with a koa top and birdseye board!
