We’ve shared a couple of Atticus Lazenby’s incredible creations in the past, and they just keep getting better. The luthier shared his latest build, the CUTEbass 432, which he says is for himself.
“This one’s a personal build and less of a prototype than a final proof-of-concept of the four-string medium-scale version of my design,” Lazenby writes. “I hadn’t built myself a P-style bass yet, which has been a welcome addition to my toolkit. It’s light, well-balanced, comfortable, and it sounds great! And, like all of my CUTEbass designs, it fits in a guitar-sized gig bag, which is great for traveling.”
The 432 is a four-string bass with a 32-inch scale. It’s built with a reclaimed alder scrap body in “ballet pink” with a quartersawn 2A roasted maple neck. Its roasted maple fingerboard has a compound radius for playing comfortably across its 24 frets.
Other features include a Delanoc PC4 AL pickup, passive electronics, Riviera Gear headless hardware, and a white pearl acrylic pickguard.
