12 string headstock crack repair

12 string headstock crack repair – this guy came in from Tofino, was looking to buy a new guitar because he dropped off his broken Garrison at a “big company” and they couldn’t fix it (or wouldn’t) – they warned him a repair like this would be much more than what the guitar was worth..so naturally, he brought it to the BASONE SHOP, fixed no problem. We even resprayed the black for free since we had the spraygun out, & the repair cost was waaay below what he expected. Alright…we care!!

6-string 25-fret Basone Bass

Meeting the demands of the market, Basone Guitars has now released its new 25-fret 6-string Bass Guitar.

Basone 25-fret 6-string Custom Bass Guitar w/ Gotoh tuners, Bardolini pickups, Ghost Acoustiphonic Midi HexpanderAll raw materials are hand selected: the body and neck are made of Honduran Mahogany, the body top is made of Spalted Maple with black Walnut and Indian Ebony accents. These bass guitars are hollow, whereas most basses are solid body. Our instruments’ body chambering, as well as the hybrid tonewood structure, result in a beautiful low piano like striking sound that reverberates even when the bass guitar is played unplugged.

These six-strings unveil a wider range of playability. The 25 frets allow the player to reach at least 5 octaves comfortably. Because of the wide long neck, two truss rods are used for extra support.

The Basone 6-string Bass is equipped with Gotoh 510 supertuners, Custom Gotoh 6-string Bass bridge, and Graphtech black tusq nut. The Bartolini pickup, with Ghost Acoustiphonic Midi Hexpander Piezo system lets the player plug in the instrument to an amp as well as play midi sounds through the bass (2 separate outputs).
