\"America<\/p>\n

Chilean bassist, singer, and songwriter America Paz<\/strong> recently debuted a new look for her Dingwall NG3 to create what she calls the \u201cSailor Bass.\u201d The stock instrument was painted by artist \u201cEl Miedo,\u201d who specializes in applying fluorescent colors to anime styles. <\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Sailor Bass\u2019 is an absolutely magical bass, depending on the color and the type of lightning reflected on it, which allows seeing how some colors light up, triggering a visual effect that makes it seems like the drawing comes to life and lights itself,\u201d Paz writes. <\/p>\n

You can see her playing it in this clip:<\/p>\n

El Miedo also made the art for Paz\u2019s new album, Message From The Stars<\/em>. The instrumental record mixes Chilean folklore with funk, fusion, and anime culture. It features several guest artists, including bassists Jorge Campos, Felipe Ilabaca, Ernesto Holman, and Bubby Lewis. Message From The Stars<\/em> is streaming now on Spotify<\/a>. <\/p>\n
