Electric Basses

Parts Bass (Frankenbass)

This is a Parts caster bass Karl has used since the late 90s, according to Karl it belonged to a friend of his and she gave him the bass, it originally was a parts bass with a fender neck, and in Olympic White with a Black pickguard. Around The Reunion and specifically the FunFunFun fest the same bass can be seen with a new white Pickguard, Seymour Duncan SPB3 pickups, and some Les Paul style gold knobs and he played this bass off and on up and changed the neck to a squire jaguar neck sometime in between until in 2021 when he brought out the bass in a new Charcoal Frost finish to mimic stephens guitar with a new black Pickguard. This bass was also used for the recording of Cool To Be You, Merican, and Hypercaffium Spazzinate and Problematic
