2005 James Trussart Steelcaster PJ Bass. Handmade in 2005 for Sven Pipien, formerly of The Black Crowes. A letter of provenance signed by Sven is included. A new Gator hard case is included. Excellent condition.
It has a bolt-on stained maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and a recessed steel head cap. Fully set up in our workshop. Serial:05059. Nut width:38.5mm. Depth at 1st fret:22mm. Weight:10 lbs 9.5 oz / 4.81kg.
The Steelcaster Bass offers a new and distinctive addition to the bass world. Patented "Holey" steel is used for the completely hollow body, reducing weight and eliminating feedback. This bass has a hollow steel body with perforated steel and custom metal appointments, like the recessed steel head cap, which is beautiful to look at and functional. By adding mass to the headstock, it increases sustain. The steel body, while also being the perfect medium to display the beautiful Trussart custom finishes and engravings, also has tonal advantages. The Trussart SteelCaster Bass' tone is a uniquely classic, fat and resonant tone combined with an edge that cuts through. The construction of these instruments is only half of the story, the other half is the finish. Every instrument comes with a history and a slight element of neglect, of decay, so it has a personality of its own.
