It's a great day whenever we get to talk to someone who puts the time and effort into making a great instrument. But when the builder lives in your neighborhood? And shows up in a vintage Japanese fire truck? 10 out of 10, no notes...

So it is that we came to have a great conversation with Iain Graham. When he's not busy working on wooden boats, or playing in his band Grosst, Iain makes one-of-a-kind basses for the likes of Joe Lally (Messthetics, Fugazi, Coriky). We got to play one such bass before it heads out to Joe, and were sorry to see it go. Enjoy!
