Hey everybody! Scott B. here, sneaking a quick last update for the year in… I just finished some updating to the site, including a video up on the BASS MODELS page. Also, on my own site (where all the super-short-scale basses shifted, among other things) I did some updating. Luthier Jake’s site is looking great, and that’s also where the official Birdsong in-progress CLIENT page is, with picture updates of some of what’s being crafted. Listen, between Birdsong, Jake, and my stuff, we can set you up with:
What many consider the best designed short scale basses anywhere…
In 4 OR 5-STRING
REALLY short guitar-scale basses that work really well
Full scale custom basses
Custom guitars from all-out rockers to ornate, carved, solid jazz guitars
And we each (and Birdsong) usually have something in progress you can claim and fine-tune some options and cosmetic touches to finish up FOR YOU. It’s all the same deal, half down to start, balance when it’s in assembly. Paying’s easy, shipping’s easy, and you get the experience of seeing it happen in pics and working with a Luthier in the process.
AND we’re still working price-wise not much more than high-end manufactured IMPORT pricing, because we’re independent small workshops and we work and sell directly TO YOU. So we leave that margin in your pocket. Can we do fancy, five-figure heirloom pieces? Of course, we’ve been at this for decades. But we each in our workshops - and Birdsong - offer simpler builds by the same hands, made with the same performance.
So get in touch, we have some spring ‘25 batch slots open we’d love to fill with YOUR bass or guitar, Birdsong, Goede, or Scott Signature. Thanks for a great year, and for 20 great Birdsong years so far!
My phone is on (or leave a message), (512) 395-5126, call anytime, call over the Holidays. I’d love to talk with you. Warmest wishes, friends!
