________And since I get a lot of inquiries, the fretless acoustic archtop (and back) bass guitar pictured was built in Chicago by Kim Schwartz in 1988, as was the red electric solid body bass seen in studio website pics. It also boasts a Rick Turner bridge-mounted piezo pickup, floating ebony thumbrest by Hugh McFarland, and Thomastik-Infeld Acousticore nylon-core strings.____________________________________________________
