Wishbass

Wishbass is a custom bass guitar company located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The company owner and head luthier, Steve Wishnevsky, specializes in making unorthodox bass guitars out of both exotic and domestic woods.
==Overview==

Wishbass are hand-crafted electric basses made from both domestic and exotic woods, although recent designs have favored domestic. They are generally inexpensive due to their simple electronics, design and lack of finish. Wishnevsky is known for what might be considered radical body shapes and for his trademark open headstock, which he claims adds sustain.〔http://www.wishbass.com〕
Wishnevsky focuses attention on using minimal metal in the construction of his basses, which he claims improves tone. He often features many different wood laminates to make up the bodies of his bass guitars, as do many of his contemporary hobbyists. The nuts and bridges on his basses are usually made of Corian, a plastic material commonly suggested for use as an alternative to bone, suitable for vegans and used by notable guitarmakers such as Gibson and Martin. Wishnevsky builds mainly fretless basses with no trussrods for cheaper construction costs. It is notable that although he is emphatic in using minimal amounts of metal in his basses, most of them feature an aluminum control cavity cover plate. Wishbasses are mainly built with passive electronics, and tone controls are not standard on Wishnevsky's basses. The lack of a tone control limits the player's ability to manipulate the tonal qualities of the bass guitar by electrical means.
Most Wishbasses are characterized by a rather large headstock and a thick neck that is more characteristic of an upright bass than as electric bass. This also lessens the need for a truss rod (which can be added upon request). There are eleven basic models or styles listed on the Wishbass website. The names listed below are templates and the similarities end there, as every Wishbass is different. The styles listed on Wishnevsky's site are the Stude, Hipper, Peanut, Scroll, Standard, JB, Arrow, Swirl, Kewel, Fantasy and Scarab. At the time of this writing. Steve Wishnevsky has handmade over 1,500 Wishbasses.
