Bass of the Week: Tamariz Basses Pocket Baby Bass
This week we’re checking out the Pocket Baby Bass from Mexico City-based Tamariz Basses. The company specializes in the electric-upright “baby bass” style, and this model is a great example why.
Built for bassist Jesus Sanchez Puebla, this Pocket Baby Bass is crafted with a claro walnut body matched to a walnut and Caribbean rosewood neck. Tamariz keeps it simple with Wilkinson tuners, an Ampeg-style pickup, and a 2-band preamp.
