The Sacramento was originally designed as an homage to one of my favorite bass brands of all time. It began as a short-scale, chambered body bass, but quickly proved to be an excellent platform for variations on a theme. Now, three different scale lengths are available (30.5”, 32”, and 34”) as well as a solid bodied version. Binding, body contours, top woods, pickups, and inlays are among the multitude of other customizations at hand. Unlike many 2 pickup basses, the pickups on the Sacramento are positioned to be useful both one at a time, or in unison. The Sacramento is a great choice for the player who wants to take part in creating an instrument that is uniquely their own.

Make it Your Own
Chambered body or solid body? Short, medium, or long scale? Binding or contours? Exotic top wood or a solid piece of maple? The Sacramento wears many different masks. It’s the perfect bass for those wanting to have a say in what they play
String-Thru Design
The string-thru body design of the Sacramento not only adds greater tension and body coupling, but it also allows for a more compact overall length. Both the short and medium scale Sacramento’s fit in (most) guitar sized cases and bags!
