AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERent. In most things, popularity breeds imitation, and the results become indelibly part of our collective consciousness, sometimes stifling innovation in the process.

 The complacency behind accepting a dominant paradigm creates the conditions for unquestioning dogma, yet pushing against this trend inspires us to pursue creativity. And, as artists, we strive to challenge the status quo. That ambition is what fueled Dudacus Basses founder Steven Baxter to start his company four years ago. Growing up in Brazil in the ’60s and ’70s meant missing out on the instruments commonly available in the U.S. Instead, brands like Teisco, Vox, and Rickenbacker—which originated in Japan and Europe—offered sharp contrasts from the American-made electric basses and guitars of the time. With their odd shapes and electronics, European and Japanese instruments set themselves apart in a saturated market and thus enjoyed quite a bit of success in their heyday. These outside-the-box designs were the impetus for Baxter to create a line of instruments with features as distinctive and innovative as the instruments that inspired him growing up.
