JASON BURNS and the
Story about KING Doublebass
It's
an old maxim: If you want it done right, do it yourself. Frustrated
by the lack of durable, quality instruments and hardware on the market,
King Doublebass founder, president, and accomplished bassist Jason
Burns took it upon himself to build his own basses and to get it
right.
"When I was touring with an upright bass, I couldn't keep it
together and when I got it to stay together I couldn't get it loud
enough to be heard over the rest of the band. So I decided to make my
own," says Burns of the modest beginnings of what has become one of
the hottest companies specializing in building custom upright basses.
Touring over the years with bands such as Hank III, C.C.
Adcock, and The Road Kings, Burns developed and refined the
product line which has catapulted his company to the top of the industry.
"I got input from people like Lee Rocker and Jimbo
Wallace--those guys have been playing on the road and in studios
long enough to have a really good idea of what needs to go into the
design and crafting of professional quality instruments. It's not enough
for the instrument to look and sound great. It's got to hold up. It has
to be able to take the abuse of a 40 show tour and sound the same at the
last show as it did at the first." That means that a King
instrument is built to last. Burns uses premium quality woods, steel
reinforced necks, and proprietary crafting techniques to ensure that his
instruments' durability standards match those of their look and sound.
The result is an instrument of unparalleled quality which has become the
bass of choice for the best musicians in the world. Both Jimbo Wallace
and Lee Rocker play King instruments and each even has his own pro model
which Burns manufactures according to their exacting specifications.
Both product lines have become popular among players for their great
tone, solid build, and head-turning appearance.
"We use pearl, metal-flake, and candy finishes even on our stock
models," says Burns, "it's more complicated to do it that way
but I think it's important that these instruments look as good as they
sound." King Doublebass' custom shop is equipped to further
accentuate the basses with special finishes and hand-painted pinstripes
done by highly regarded artists.
As King Doublebass grows and expands its distribution network,
Burns remains committed to building each instrument with the same care
and quality that has made his company a success. He says, "I still
oversee the production of every single instrument that comes out of here.
I want everybody who orders a King instrument to rest assured that
they're getting the best instrument available." While the company
positions itself for steady growth, players of King basses remain
satisfied in knowing that somebody finally got it right.
