Why no Gibson, Warwick, Music Man, Lakland, G&L, Modulus, etc... ???
Truth is I'll probably include these eventually when I run out of things to cover, but I want to stick to lesser known brands and inexpensive basses that aren't your everyday bass guitars. A few pretty expensive basses have slipped through the cracks as I've searched for makes and models of certain basses, but originally it wasn't my intention. I have included many of the Yamaha BB series which can be very pricey, but these are just instruments I believe in and want more people to be aware of.
