Fusion 5 String Custom Bass.
This is a design which is a fusion of the familiar Jazz style bass and headstock format with a modern set neck construction and head angle. This particular early build is my personal bass and has a body made from New Guinea Rosewood which is a very percussive clear sounding wood, coupled with a top from the burl wood of the same species commonly known as Amboyna Burl.
