Every once in a while an airbrush pops up that is really nice and doesn't catch on. Unfortunately, the Bass is one of those airbrushes.
It was made in the late
1970's and early 1980's in Northridge, California, a suburb of Los Angeles by Donald Bass. The handle is
made of nylon and is very comfortable and easy to use. It’s a basic single action, external mix airbrush and it will accept the same
cups or bottles as a Paasche H or Badger 350. The major differences are the 3/8" thick white nylon body's funny ergonomic shape,
the trigger mounted farther forward than usual, and the air inlet at the rear. These combine to give it a balance and feel that are
exceptional. It's too bad that wasn't successful because it's a high quality airbrush and is far more comfortable to use than a similar
Paasche or Badger. A lack of advertising doomed it the marketplace.
