OK new this week is a rendered drawing of the new 10 string bass we're building for Stew Mckinsey, the nickname for this bass is the Behemoth. Rendered drawings are something I'd love to do more of, it's a great way to get our customer's vision to a state of reality before the first piece of wood is cut. Now all we have to do is build it! Stay tuned...............

New 10 String ERB In The Works

The latest news from Sage headquarters is a new 10 string being built for Stew McKinsey. We've known Stew for several years, and as most people know Stew has been one of the ERB kingpins for some time. Most people also know he lost some of his prised basses in the Hurricane Katrina tragedy in 2005. We're tickled to have the opportunity to help rebuild his bass collection. I've drawn the initial blueprint, and over the next several months we'll make this bass a reality. We fully intend on making this bass destroy all other ERB 10's on the block, not with an inlay of a dragon clutching a pearl, not by making it out of some sacred wood Ben Franklin owned, This thing is gonna kick ass because it's a well thought out design, executed with razor sharp precision. Here's the specs thus far:

- Swamp Ash Body (top as of yet undetermined)

- Rock Maple Neck

- Birdseye Maple Fingerboard

- Hipshot Custom Hardware

- 34" Scale

- 27 Frets

- 9mm Nut Spacing

- 17mm Bridge Spacing

Thee-Ram Is The Man

This is the owner of our latest SC to hit the street. Thee-Ram lays it down with a heavy thumb with the likes of Bootsy Collins and Buckethead. This dude has a super funky smile so he has to wear a mask. We've heard some of the latest cuts he's been doing with Bootsy, and they keep the funk real. Look for sound clips in the future.
