GB electronics bass processor

This is the only system of its kind in the world.

I designed the circuits for the original Goodfellow Basses which, ironically, became my competition when sold to Lowden. I immediately started work on developing superior electronics. Since the early 90s I have been working with my electronics wizard, Dick Straker. A great deal of time and money has been spent on many different prototypes and testing, which have produced results that speak for themselves.

Neutrik locking jack sockets

These are becoming an industry standard.

Originally made for amplifiers and rack units, the Neutrik jack socket's superior construction and reliability made them logical choice for my basses. The locking facility on this particular jack socket eliminates the possibility of accidentally unplugging your bass.

GB pickups

This is the only system of its kind in the world.

Researched, developed and made by GB Guitars and are totally exclusive to us.

After years of experimenting and testing we discovered there wasn't a pick-up on the market that could deliver the sounds I wanted from my basses. With further research and development a pick-up evolved that delivered the results I wanted.

GB static/flashing fret markers

This option is becoming an industry standard.

During my career with a society function band, for a bit of fun, I made a Rumour bass with red LEDs that replaced the dot markers on the fingerboard. This proved to be the forerunner of the GB programmable Sound-to-Light LED System.

GB programmable LED Sound-to-Light system

This is the only system of its' kind in the world.

This system was researched, developed and entirely made by GB Guitars and as such, is totally exclusive to us.

It is easy operated by turning the controller knob and with eight programmable pre-sets, it is the ultimate "light show" for the ultimate showman.

GB Pulse battery condition indicator

This is the only system of its kind in the world.

Being an active bass player myself, I realised the need for this facility. It is activated when the jack is plugged in and is visible through the tinted perspex back plate. A small, red LED pulses silently once every 6 seconds, indicating optimum battery level. When the pulse speeds up to 3 times a second the batteries will need to be replaced within a couple of weeks. Check your pulse.
