We present to you the Serek-Horn Family Band!

When I recently found some old countertop laminate at the local lumberyard I thought, "this would make a cool bass!" When Benny saw the laminates he thought, "this would make a cool Michael Nesmith & The First National Band cover video!" So here you have it.

Serek Basses and @lockhorn_inst have collaborated again to make 5 unique instruments (AVAILABLE NOW IN OUR WEB SHOP), complete with everythang but the kitchen sink.

Called upon to bolster the musical offering are @samgenualdimusic on guitar, and a mystery guest on brushes (who we secretly suspect is @atticuslazenby ). Audio Recorded by: Sam Genualdi Video Recorded & Edited by: Shelby Pollard (@shelbypollard / @blackbobbinchicago )

Artist Appreciation Post: First of all everyone please wish @satomixevil3 a very Happy Birthday!

It should be no secret that @deerhoof are one of my favorite bands of all time. When I first reached out to them about 6-7 years ago I was still very wet behind the ears, but I believed in what I was making.

The ever gracious Ed Rodriguez was first to respond and invited me to come out to a soundcheck to peddle my wares. Everyone in the band made me feel very welcomed. Satomi was immediately drawn to a short scale chambered Sacramento and asked to buy it on the spot, however I had built it for another customer and had to deny her. Very embarrassing!

But we embarked on a custom build together and incorporated some special touches to make the bass her own. Since then, some of the most rewarding moments of this career have been seeing that bass in the hands of Satomi and the rest of the band and even hearing it on recent records!

Don`t be afraid of those dreams!

This one ended up in the land of counterclockwise toilets (apparently a myth). Keep an eye out for it in the capable hands of @duskytracks / @kinggizzard ...

Jop @jopvansummeren has been playing his two medium scale Midwestern 2 basses for several years now. He takes care of low end duties in the Dutch band @destaat.

If you haven`t heard De Staat yet, GO LISTEN NOW. I`ve been pining for them to come to the US for a long time now.

Artist Appreciation Post!

Over the years we have had the pleasure of working with dozens of amazing musicians, all with a similar goal: make good music. It is the absolute REWARD of this job to get to be a small part of that.

I have been meaning to highlight these good people, and what better way to start the new year!

Meet @friendshipwizard a kind and wacky soul, who has opened up our world all the while slinging some excellent choptitude.
