Quality Inside and Out

Time tested building techniques combined with the components available.

  • Active EQ Faders with Bypass and Tone Roll Off

    Treble- Mids- Bass boost only powered by a custom wired Nordstrand 3 Band Preamp + Volume-Blend-Tone (push pull bypass) knobs gives you endless tonal options.

  • Strategic Chambering

    We chamber for resonance, better balance and to bring you a lighter instrument

  • Hipshot USA Hardware

    Hipshot makes the most solid hardware on the planet. We don’t settle for anything less.

  • Precision Fit Graphite Reinforced Quartersawn Maple Necks

    Quartersawn maple is known for its strength and stability. Graphite strips reinforce that stability so your neck stays consistent from case to stage.

  • Neck Finish: Thin Matte Nitro Finish

    The neck is the one of the most important parts of your bass. Thin Nitro helps you feel instanatly at home

  • Nickel Shelided isolated control cavity

    Creating a beautiful faraday cage to protect your sound from un-wanted interference.

  • Hand shaped Graphtec Tusq nut blanks

    Graphtec Tusq provides superior and consistent open sting tone while allowing your strings freedom of movement, preventing tuning hang ups or issues.

  • Chunky headstock!

    This massive headstock eliminates dead spots that are so often found in 34” scale bolt on neck designs.

  • Magnetic Battery Cover

    No screwdriver needed and no plastic parts to break.

What our clients are saying:

  • The bass arrived yesterday and it sounding and looking spectacular! I'm so so excited to play it! Already feels at home! Haven’t had this feeling for long time with an instrument.

    LEH #054

  • Can't find the words to describe how awesome the bass is… Looks gorgeous… Fret board is absolutely beautiful.  Great feel to the neck.  Feels like an old-friend/bass I've been playing for years. Punchy plus massive sustain. I kind of freaked out when I first plugged in.  It's ridiculously quiet… Tons of different sounds with just subtle adjustments.  Thanks again for an incredible instrument.

    LEH #027

  • I INCREDIBLE!! Wow, I’m seriously blown away - what a beautiful instrument. It’s hard to contain the excitement.

    LEH #029

  • Have now had about 4 hours with the bass, either through an amp at low volume, or with headphones.  It feels great under the hands.… And the sound is glorious!   Reverse P is doing exactly what I hoped for -  coupled with the 70’s placement at the bridge, the B-string is very articulate…. I’m also thrilled about the clarity for chords and double stops.  Overall, a great amalgamation that bridges two critical continuum: clarity/warmth; delicacy/authority…Color me highly satisfied!

    - LEH #057

  • I'm THRILLED with the instrument, I've got 3 or four favorite pickup blend/tone knob combinations I've been working with that give me the diversity of sound ...  I've been having fun with the EQ too— Final piece of feedback: I've spent years avoiding the 7th fret on the G string where multiple basses I've owned have a dead spot-- obviously not always achievable but I'm convinced people can see my cringe when I play it.  Last night, I realized-- this bass doesn't have a dead spot there!  Then I set about looking for one and couldn't find it.  Fantastic!

    LEH #062

  • Bass is nothing short of amazing, I’m absolutely blown away. It was definitely worth the wait! I just love having a bass that was entirely made by you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    LEH #020

  • I’ve only gotten to play it for a few minutes so far but holy sh**. This thing is insane and the color looks amazing! Very happy with the ebony board. I love that little bit of top end rasp it seems to get. That was a huge thing I was going for with this! The neck is insanely comfortable and I love how rounded the edges feel. Thank you for everything.

    -LEH #084

  • This is the most spectacular instrument I’ve ever owned both visually and sonically. All I can say is wow.

    -LEH 038

  • I’ve always loved the faders, and when I first got the bass, I thought they were an aesthetic choice. But over the years of playing it I’ve realized how valuable they are. When you’re onstage and the lights are in your eyes and the bass doesn’t sound the way you want it to, you can twist EQ knobs, but you have no idea where they are landing. Having a tactile element to the EQ is life changing. It’s like, wow, Ellis solved that entire problem.

    -LEH 019

  • THIS THING IS AN ABSOLUTE BEAST!!! The neck feels amazing. THE FADERS, FADERS! The pre is just out of this world too! You have something super special here, imho.  First gig will be Sunday and I can't wait for a real test run. Also, have a recording session booked for January, this is going to be the axe.  You are a master at your craft and honored to have an LEH Bass.
