Your Local Luthier Basses

Anybody have any basses that they've had made by a local luthier that they would like to share? I am considering selling a few basses and working with some local guys. I have two guitars by a local small Atlanta company, and they are outstanding. That company doesn't offer basses (yet), but there are some other builders around who do. I really enjoyed working with and supporting local people, and it's cool (to me, at least) to have your instruments made in your hometown or state. I encourage anybody to share pictures of their locally made basses as well as describe their experience throughout the build process. It certainly doesn't have to be a well known company or luthier. Thanks!

 

They all look very nice. Any particular favorite?

 

Yeah I am about ready to get an order going with Steve, so glad to have a well respected luthier like him here in Georgia. Can't wait. Your Kudela basses are awesome.

 

That's a beautiful bass!

 

Just spoke to Steve on the phone, what a gentleman and knowledgeable guy! I will be paying him a visit soon.

 

Oh that's really cool! I have never been able to play an FBass, but that is truly beautiful and the shade of blue is really nice. Nice touch with the matching pickup covers too.
