25 Years of BassLab

basslab — Thu, 23 Jun 2022 18:15:37 +0000

After 10 years of writing my monthly column “Bass Bench” for Premier Guitar, I recently had to take a break at the beginning of 2022. It was fun to write and I hope this break will be only temporarily.

The main reason behind it is the amount of work and that our backlog of orders just grew far too big.

And while fighting this backlog, we almost forgot that we had a jubilee to celebrate:

25 years of BassLab and 25 years of fightging traditions via evidence and reason.

Thanks to all customers and supporters!

New Review – Gitarre & Bass, Germany

basslab — Fri, 30 Oct 2020 11:35:31 +0000

New review out by the German mag “Gitarre & Bass”

“With a well-balanced mixture of cultivated acoustic components, tight, smooth tonal precision and flexibility, this Soul Custom creates a wide range of particularly harmonic sounds of the best practical value.

This is the right one when it comes to dignified sound culture and relaxed playing with a strong acoustic tailwind. No other electric bass can beat the BassLab with its acoustically-fueled sound dominance!

Plus:

– Sound behavior, harmonic acoustic components

– Sound variability

– Easy playability + balance

– Well equipped”

66 and growing…

FYI: Since early 2012 I´ve been writing a monthly column for the US guitar-mag “Premier Guitar“, called “Bass Bench”. Although having bass in the name, the column mainly covers the technical background of both basses and guitars, which are working in pretty much the same way. As of today, there are 66 columns available.

You can read all columns for free on this page or here, if you prefer a new window!
