Modulus Hand Crafted Electric Bass Guitars

MODULUS

The most important advance since the invention of the bass guitar has been the carbon fiber neck. From that day in 1976 when bass-playing rocket scientist Geoff Gould (yup, he was a carbon fiber designer on the Voyager probe) first wondered, “What if …” the electric bass has been a different animal. The Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh played one of the first carbon fiber -necked basses and from that point forward, the most accomplished and creative bassists in the world have played a Modulus.

To this day, Modulus Quantum basses are made using the same aerospace “hand layup” process as in the beginning. The distinctively spacey exterior layer of carbon fiber is known around their shop as KLD™ or “a thousand (k) ladies dancing.” This artistic touch has been a Modulus trademark for over 15 years.
