Your Bass. Your Sound. Your Style.

Are you dreaming of a custom instrument built exactly the way you’ve always wanted it?

Back in 1969, I, Bert Gerecht, modified my very first Precision Bass. A passion was born that soon became a lifelong dedication. In 1980, I founded my first bass custom shop, Mr. Bassman. In 1999, this experience and uncompromising quality became the foundation of Hot Wire Bass.

Every Hot Wire instrument reflects my vision of sound, playability, and design – and just as important, it reflects your wishes. Together with my team, I bring your ideas to life, from individual one-off builds to detailed modifications.

We also take care of customer instruments with the same precision:
• Professional repairs and upgrades
• Fretwork and fingerboard treatments
• Pickup swaps and custom wiring
• Installation of EAST Electronics and other premium components
• Complete re-builds and tunings to stage-ready perfection

Whether you need a tailor-made custom bass or want to unlock the hidden potential of your existing instrument – Hot Wire Bass is here to make it happen.
