Creston Lea / Creston Guitars

I like making basses. Here are the two I made for myself - green in 2005 and sunburst in 2021. I never thought I’d want a second bass, but I blew out some wood while shaping a neck and stared at it for a year or two before getting out the glue and making myself another bass. I like them both so much, it’s hard to fathom ever wanting anything else. I’m always quick to recommend the Lollar Thunderbird pickup for bass OR guitar. It’s perfect. Anyway, here’s a love letter to my basses.
