The funkmeister is the perfect amalgamation of cutting edge technology, old fashioned craftmanship and style. Perfect for the bassplayer wanting a traditional feel but with access of both the Zoot sound and classical fender type sounds including a Marcus Miller type of sound. Truly an amazing bass. Next year we will have a new vacuum oven to acommodate the brand new graphite necked Funkmeisters. Of course, there are custom shop options if you want the Funkmeister made to your own specifications. QUICKTIME movie 726kb.
