The bass you were never allowed to play

That friend whose dad had that incredible vintage bass?

You know the one you were never allowed to touch — and if you did, you'd be dead meat? That one. Remember sneaking into his room and playing it? It had all the vintage vibe and character preserved by the soft red velvet case that still smelled of the glory days when you opened it. The chipped paint and dents on the neck made you feel like you were there when they happened.

Mr. Jay brought that bass by our repair shop to get set up, and while we had it we deep-sampled it for you using high-end studio gear. Now you can get that vintage tone and feel in your modern productions without having to worry about getting in trouble with Mr. Jay.
