PG's Shawn Hammond is On Location at the 2010 NY Amp Show where he
visits the Cavey's Creations room. In this segment, we get to check out
some of Cavey's (Matt Blake) Creations that include custom guitars and
basses.
The new company showed off two basses and one guitar.
Matt "Cavey" Blake says he gets most of his design ideas from his other
passion in life—hot rod cars. The guitar model is called Nailed is a
25.5" scale with an all maple body and neck with a paudak and yellow
heart fretboard. It has a unique neck design in that Blake describes as
"not a neck-thru and not a bolt-on, it's my version of both—it really
seems to work." The Low Rider bass has Nordstrand pickups and is built
on a 35" scale. Matt also built the guitar stand holding Cavey's
Creations.
Cavey's Creations neck design uses two different
pieces of solid wood for the fretboard and neck, which is also
connected to wood surrounding the pickups.
