Birdsong’s
21st Anniversary
BIRDSONG 21st ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL
Sunday July 6th 2025
WELL, WELL, WELL! Isn’t THIS something! WELCOME to the official Birdsong Guitars Anniversary page, fired up here for the 21st time. Without your interest and trust, and your passion to play what we make, we’d have just been some folks with a few oddball bass guitars. But they became answers for so many, for so many different reasons seeking something lighter and balanced and big sounding in a smaller bass. And now, 21 years in, they’re all over the world! And many of you are too… but the tools and hands of Birdsong are still in the woodsy “Hill Country” of south-central Texas, carrying on OUR tradition, cutting and carving out the next generation’s Birdsong basses.
We can’t thank you enough; but we CAN make you a great bass and build our gratitude in as we go! For those new to us, our story is HERE - our basses are HERE - and below is all the info you’ll need on today’s ONE DAY offerings!
Founder & designer Scott Beckwith is available all day for questions and orders:
MIDNIGHT to MIDNIGHT Eastern Standard Time (Scott’s up in rural New York)
Facebook messages through HIS PAGE or the BIRDSONG GUITARS PAGE
Phone calls (no texts): 512-395-5126 (verbally leave your number for a call back)
Emails to: birdsongbass@yahoo.com
ALL will be checked and answered ALL day. CALL ANYTIME!
FOR 2025, we celebrate AMERICAN BLACK WALNUT! Some of the most beautiful woodgrain ever even in “plainer” pieces - it’s always great looking, always holds subtle surprises in figure and coloring until the hand rubbed oil finish goes on, and it imparts a solid, even voice to the overall tone. It doesn’t boost or cut anything, low lows to bright highs. It’s all there, and looking great. Walnut pairs up nicely with ANY hardware - chrome looks classic, gold brings out the gold in the wood, and black is just stunning (as shown).
WE BUILD WITH MANY DIFFERENT WOODS, and ALL ORDERS ARE 10% OFF through the end of today (Sunday July 6th) at midnight EST. But walnut? WALNUT gets an extra 5, so 15% OFF!
SUNDAY JULY 6th EXCLUSIVE DEALS (Keep scrolling):
THE 21st ANNIVERSARY BASS
Specially marked with the XXI under the logo, our 21st Anniversary bass is 1 of 1 - a “Corto3” 3-pickup version of our popular Corto2 bass. Three distinct tones… and three more combinations that are out of this world. All of clean, clear, powerful and warm but articulate humbucking soapbars. To my ears the best of a middle ground between single coils and humbuckers… but with no single coil hum OR humbucker mud! Bench crafted from a wild piece of black walnut.
$2995 ON SALE TODAY includes shipping in continental USA
And remember - if you want one a little different, we’ll build you a special order “Corto3” and today is the last day of the 10% OFF Anniversary SALE! Order up the Birdsong of your dreams and we’ll make it happen, there, bub!
HERE’S JAKE DEMOING THE ANNIVERSARY CORTO3:
$400 OFF of this FUSION2 bass!
A beautiful black walnut mashup of Corto2 tones and Fusion body shape. We had it for sale for a bit, Scott pulled the ad to go on a road trip… and forgot about it! YOUR GAIN - he’d rather sell it TODAY for
$2400 including shipping in continental USA
Than relist it all over again!
And remember - if you want one a little different, today is the last day of the 10% OFF Anniversary SALE! Order up the Birdsong of your dreams and we’ll make it happen, there, bub!
TWO 1-piece bodied builds can be had!
Included in the 15% OFF American black walnut 21st Anniversary special sale (say THAT fast!) is THIS special plank. We weren’t looking for more walnut, but sometimes the wood finds US. We can get TWO premium single-piece bodies out of this, 4-strings, Cortobass, Corto2 or 3, Cbass, or Fusion models. First come, first served - this sale ENDS at midnight after Sunday July 6th!
Just LOOK at it, wouldjya?!
Boards this wide are always a premium for us and charge up as an option for you. It’s an increasingly rare treat to find the quality of wood we like in the thickness we require AND WIDE enough for one-piece bodies. Get in touch today, the savings of the sale will take OFF about 4x the usual upcharge!!
