I was thinking of getting a custom 5-string bass next year and i was just wondering witch woods would give me a good tone.
I play hardcore, punk, metalcore, and sometimes some heavier metal so i kinda want a wood that has alot of sustain, would give the a nice punchy tone for punk but could still add to the growling lows too.
I was looking around and i saw alot of basses are made of Ash so i was thinking that might be a good choice.
I was thinking of puting a flamed walnut laminate top on it, idk if taht would affect tone or not.
Basicly i want to know what woos would eb best for this sound.
