News for 2010
A new year and a new decade. Keeping with that theme means a lot of new offerings from LeCompte Electric Bass for 2010. The biggy is our new lower starting prices on all of our instrument models. We've cut a big chunk off our starting prices, I mean a big chunk! We know times are tough (who doesn't know) so we're doing our best to help get you behind a new LeCompte. Just so you know, lower prices doesn't mean lower quality. We're always striving to make our instruments the best we can. To help keep the prices low satin, silver-colored Hipshot hardware will be the standard feature on all bass models. Shiny, chrome hardware has gone up in price and will be considered a custom option for a small upcharge. We're also back to using a stock truss rod. After much experimentation and investigation we've found a stock truss rod that is dang-near bullet proof and we're very happy with the performance.

The other big news is we're also offering our first guitar model. Yeah, that's right a guitar! The CGX-SC is what we're calling it. It's a set-neck, 24 fret, solid body, guitar version of our CBX-SC model. Same great style, same great playability, but built for our guitar brethren. Just like our basses it's available with all the same wood choices along with lots of hardware and pickup options. Who's going to be the first to order one of theses babies?

Also, in case you haven't heard the news we've made it into the pages of Bass Player magazine! That's a pretty big deal for us. It's been a long time goal and we couldn't be more excited. They reviewed two of our models, the CBX-SC6 and the ACID-J5, which appeared in the December 2009 issue. Since we offer such a broad range of instruments they asked to review two distinctly different models and we were glad to oblige. You can read the review online by clicking HERE.

You may also want to keep an eye out for a future issue of Bass Gear magazine. Rumor has it that there will be a couple of more LeCompte basses reviewed in their pages sometime this year. You can check out their website HERE.

Thanks for you continued interest in LeCompte Electric Bass.
