July's Guitar of the Month Contest Winner!
We’re pleased to announce that Gino is the latest winner of our Guitar of the Month contest! His bass is built using Combine's 5-String Bass DIY Kit. Here is his story (translated, original available on website):
"My name is Gino, I've been a Heavy Metal musician since the 80s. Today I have my studio at home and I'm making an album. I compose entirely and play all the instruments.
This past year I had purchased the 7 string electric guitar ensemble kit and realized how much I could customize this guitar from Combine.
Almost a month ago I noticed the 5 String Electric Bass Kit. This bass kit was once again very easy to put together and again allowed me to customize everything to my imagination. As soon as I received it, I had the inspiration of a skull model.
I received the kit on time and again found the parts to be of good quality for the price. I do not regret my purchases at Combine and I am not at my last purchase."
Original in French: "Je me nomme Gino, je suis musicien Heavy Métal depuis les années 80. Aujourd'hui j'ai mon studio à la maison et je réalise un album. Je compose entièrement et joue de tous les instruments. L'an passé à même date je m'étais procuré le kit d'ensemble de guitare électrique à 7 cordes et j'ai réalisé à quel point je pouvais personnaliser cette guitare de Combine. Il y a près d'un mois j'ai remarqué le Kit de basse électrique 5 cordes. Ce kit de basse a été une fois de plus très facile à assembler et m'a permis encore une fois de personnaliser le tout selon mon imagination. Dès que je l'ai reçu, j'ai eu l'inspiration d'un modèle de tête de mort. J'ai reçu le kit dans les délais et j'ai encore constaté que les pièces étaient de bonne qualité pour le prix. Je ne regrette pas mes achats chez Combine et je ne suis pas à mon dernier achat."
Gino will receive 50% off the base price of his next DIY Guitar Kit, and his build has been shared on our website and social media.
