This past Saturday, I had the very good fortune to snag this beauty from the guys at Guitar Repair of Tampa Bay:
From Guitar Repair of Tampa Bay's Facebook page:
This is a very special Crackercaster 556 Debutante Bass. It's made from Pecky Cypress, Southern Ash and Florida Rosewood. The Pecky not only looks cool, it also has a LOT of resonance due to the air voids in the body. This also cuts down on the weight. Carey Nordstrand has once again outdone himself making us a neck/bridge set of hum-cancelling 5-string '51 P-Bass pickups. The look of the body was so amazing we just couldn't cover it with a pickguard. The controls are volume/balance/tone with 20 gauge shotgun shell knobs. We built this for the Nashville Music Gear Expo so no one has laid claim to it yet. Stop by the shop to play this monster.
YeeHaaa!!!!
