A Bass to Beat All Basses! Mike Tobias began making custom guitars and basses in his music store in Orlando, Florida, in 1977. His instruments featured innovations in every facet of bass design. Combinations of exotic tone woods gave bassists a wide range of natural tonalities to choose from, so that each instrument could be tailored for the individual player. Ergonomic improvements, such as the deeply sculpted body and the asymmetrical neck, enhanced the feeling that each bass was made to fit the individual player. Tobias relocated to California in 1980 and eventually settled in the Hollywood area. By 1990, with demand for Tobias basses growing far faster than production capability, Tobias joined the Gibson family of musical instruments. Gibson moved production to Nashville in 1992, and although Mike Tobias left the company, Gibson has continued to raise industry standards for design, quality and performance with Tobias basses, highlighted by the 2003 debut of a new generation of basses made in Conway, Arkansas. The Signature bass is Tobias at its best. The Signature is for players who demand incompromised quality in tone, playability and appearance. From its bookmatched exotic wood body to its nine-piece MultiLam Asym neck, the Tobias Signature bass is a timeless work of art that will inspire you to achieve your best.
