Yet another cool bass builder

I don't think this has been discussed before, but I came across this guy today: Browne Basses

He's got some pretty cool basses and nice wood selections.

Very tasty looking instruments. Have never heard of someone using Walnut for a body wood before; usually I've seen it as a top.

Yeah, if you check out the forums on there they have some cool builds as well. There's one with ebony as a top wood, and that looks soooo cool. And a pink ivory fretboard on another.

Awesome instruments, I like his taste, wood combinations and some awesome luthier's ideas

I love that wood combination

^^ Totally! I grabbed those pics and saved them on my computer. If you and I do this TIL8ish thing, that's what I'm thinking might work. A lot of style and NO staining!
