Reminds me of an Epi. Newport.

The model that inspired Jake Serek to do the Midwestern is the Rickenbacker 3001.

 

 

The waiting time for these basses is now over a year, he's becoming more and more in demand, and the basses are incrising in value.

 

 

But I want to buy a new DB, so this one has to go.

Jake actually said in an interview that the MW is based on a Newport:

 

"I also have the Midwestern and the Midwestern II, which are short-scale basses influenced by an old Epiphone design—the Epiphone Newport, back from like the early, early ‘60s, when they were still making them at Kalamazoo. So the Midwestern is kind of like a modernized version of that."

Either way these are fabulous basses. GLWYS

Nice to know. 

 

 

And yes, it's a stupendous bass.

The Serek Sacramento is the model influenced by the Rickenbacker.  🙂

Yes, but I was talking about the Rick 3001. The Midwestern looks exactly like it. And even more similar to the Newport, like it was said before.
