In our unending search for beautiful basses, I stumbled across this gorgeous piece of hardware by Woodo Guitars. This is the Woodo B5X Red Burl bass, and she's one fine carving, that's for sure. The pictures blow up pretty big, so click and keep clicking!
According to the website, she's a reasonably new edition to their lineup, having been released in September of 2012.
"Woodo Guitars is a Swedish brand of quality Bass Guitars and Electric Guitars. Our specialty is to produce instruments with "Neck Thru" design combined with the most beautiful hardwoods in the world like sycamore, walnut, hard maple, ebony and mahogany.
When an instrument is constructed with "Neck Thru"-design, the neck of the instrument goes all the way thru the body as a single piece of wood. This creates a jointless path for sound waves to carry thru the the whole instrument giving the guitar an extremely long sustain."
