![]() ![]() My proposal to them – Send a bass to me and I will work to promote your brand and I will be able to put one of your basses in the hands of US players. In 1994, with the help of Bass Player Magazine’s Buyers Guide, I was able to find and contact over 100 bass builders from around the globe. Years later, with the advent of fax machines, I found it easier to establish contact with non-local luthiers. The concept behind Luthiers Access Group was born back then, then shelved for some years. Then I heard of a few other bass builders, but again, there were none here to test. Way back when (late ’70’s), Alembic was the only custom bass shop I was aware of, and to get one of their basses entailed sending money to them and hoping I would like the bass – $2,500 for a bass I have never played? A little too risky for this boy. Why did I start Luthiers Access Group 23 years ago? Fame and fortune? Nah.
