Custom Semi-Hollowbody Bass by Yerby Guitars

This is a really nice bass made by Nashville Luthier Gary Yerby. It is a semi-hollowbody, with a neck-thru design. Gary told me that part of the block that forms the neck is also partly hollowed out. It is beautiful with layered pieces of maple and mahogany. The fret board is maple and rosewood with wooden dots. It has a Duncan Quarter Pound P pickup and vol/tone controls. Weighs a lightweight 7.8 lbs. The sound is very sweet - as you'd expect, it sounds like a hollowbody Precision. It can get punchy P-tones, and smooth, Lee Sklar-type sounds. It currently has roundwounds on it, but I've had flats on it as well, and they also sound great. It's even sounding, balanced and comfortable to play. Something like this would cost a lot more from a well-known maker, but it's really a very nice and well-made instrument. In very good condition, a few little scratches. Will ship with a gig bag and will be packed well.
