Of course, there is still the option of you modifying your bass guitar altogether, but be sure that when you customize your bass guitar that what ever you do it does not affect the quality of sound. Luckily today, there are a number of companies that offer custom bass guitars that are made to order. The only thing you have to do is give them the exact details of how you want your custom bass guitar to look and they create it for you. However, this does cost a pretty penny, but it is well worth it.
An independent craftsman only creates custom bass guitars because they love doing what they do. They do not do it for the money involved, even though that may be nice. They have a true love for working with wood and get a great satisfaction out of seeing the finished product that they have created and then hearing it played once it is completed.
A custom bass guitar that is created by a independent craftsman rather than on an assembly line has a life of its very own. A handmade guitar will not only have a life of their own, but they will have a different shape and feel. As a result, they will produce a much different sound that will be much more purer than a machine built guitar.
When you are selecting an independent craftsman to create your custom bass guitar you want to select someone with years of experience in the business who has references. This individual should be able to show you examples of their past work and explain in detail each step that he takes to create their custom bass guitars.
It is vital to find out what type of woods that they will be creating your bass guitar out of, because you do not want your guitar created out of a wood that is not going to last. Two of the best woods to make a bass guitar out of is Alder and Ash, which are known as the Bass Woods. Keep this in mind when selecting your independent craftsman.
One customization you can do yourself is a truss rod cover, which is simple to install and will improve the appearance of your bass guitar. Perhaps you would like a more vintage look on your bass guitar. If so, then you might want to select some custom made pickups on a mahogany body. Mahogany is a wood that is no longer requested anymore, so your bass guitar would most definitely be unique.
Once your bass guitar has been customized, then it should be just as durable as it was prior to being customized. It may look a bit different, but it is still the same old friend that you knew before having it customized and it will be around for a while. Remember to take good care of your custom bass guitar so as much as you did before and pay close attention to your new customizations.
