The basic models I offer are the NJ, the NJ Deluxe, and the NSC the NX. Each of these are available in 4, 5, and 6 string versions. Be sure to review the terms for sale if you are interested in ordering a bass.

All basses come standard with a satin urethane finish, Hipshot Ultralight tuning machines and Style B bridge, abalone or pearl logo, and DR Sunbeam strings. Scale lengths can be 33", 33.5", 34", 34.5", or 35" at your preference, but 34" is standard for four strings and 34.5" is standard for five and six strings. Please see the price list for other options.

All basses come with Fat Stack pickups in plastic covers. Please visit nordstrandpickups for more information about what pickups are available. Dual coil pickups are available for a slight upcharge.

NJ Model

This is basically a modernized curvy take on the classic Fender Jazz bass, with hints of a Michael Tobias influence.

This model is available with your choice of a solid ash, alder, or mahogany body with a maple neck and an Indian rosewood, bubinga, maple, or pau ferro fingerboard. It comes with two J style pickups with solid covers and passive wiring. Chrome Hipshot hardware is standard. The rest of the specs for your bass can be customized to your personal preference. I.E. Neck shape, fingerboard radius, and fret size. See the price list for additional options.

NJ Deluxe

This is a Deluxe version of the NJ and includes all the specs of that instrument plus your choice of top wood for the body and headstock. Certain woods may be more, depending on what I paid for them. This model also includes the Aguilar OBP-3 3 band preamp with a passive tone.


 

SC Model

This is my take on the very popular single cut away design pioneered and developed by Fodera. It is difficult to design a single cut that has its own identity, but I'm happy with this shape.

It includes the same appointments as the NJ Deluxe. A full face top is now standard. See the price list for more information

 

This is the realization of an idea I have had for quite a while now. It is essentially a cross between an SC and a set neck NJ. The intent was to have a bass that had the construction characteristics of an SC while having the appearance be more like a double cut away.

It includes the same appointments as the NJ Deluxe. A full face top is now standard. See the price list for more information
