Modulus Guitars: The most important advance since the invention of the bass guitar has been the carbon fiber neck. From that day in 1976 when bass-playing rocket scientist Geoff Gould (yup, he was a carbon fiber designer on the Voyager probe) first wondered, “What if …” the electric bass has been a different animal. The Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh played one of the first carbon fiber -necked basses and from that point forward, the most accomplished and creative bassists in the world have played a Modulus.
Seminal players like Alphonso Johnson, David Ellefson and Flea, to present masters like Oteil Burbridge, Mike Gordon and Me‘Shell NdegéOcello.
To this day, Modulus Quantum basses are made using the same aerospace “hand layup” process as in the beginning. We’ve made many subtle design improvements along the way, including the addition of a two-way relief adjustment. Each neck is still hand laminated with layers of carbon fiber “pre-preg” and cured in the Modulus autoclave. The distinctively spacey exterior layer of carbon fiber is known around the shop as KLD™ or “a thousand (k) ladies dancing.” This artistic touch has been a Modulus trademark for over 15 years ...

Classical guitars handbuilt in Sheffield, England by luthier James Lister, inspired by the great guitars of Torres and Hauser.
My guitars are light and responsive, with excellent clarity and separation ...
Top quality tonewoods are used throughout, usually European Spruce for the top and Indian rosewood for the back and sides ...
The common theme is an aim for clarity, warmth, balance and playability. With the Hauser model, the emphasis is on the tonal range of the instrument, whilst the contemporary model aims at greater projection, with a slightly brighter tone.
