I\u2019ve always been fascinated by the old lucite basses from the \u201970s, so when Serek Basses unveiled a trio of lucite instruments, my interest was piqued. This week we\u2019re checking out the Lucite Lincoln, which they created in collaboration with fellow Chicago-based small business, Peterson Brothers Plastics. <\/p>\n

\u201cPetersen Bros. has done a ridiculous job here\u2026 these things look like GLASS,\u201d Serek writes on their website<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Lucite Lincoln features a roasted maple neck with an Indian rosewood fingerboard crafted with a compound radius. For pickups, they stuck to their \u201ctried and true\u201d dual Serek Singles with a four-way rotary switch that allows for soloing each pickup or playing both in either parallel or series. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe tone on these is really unique,\u201d they share. \u201cThey still have a ton of punch and growl, but the mids are scooped ever so slightly and the lows are more compressed which gives these basses really nice focus and sustain.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hear the bass in action in the hands of Jake Serek himself in this demo he made when they were introduced last year. <\/p>\n
