Veillette basses and guitars are built in the USA by a team of three experienced luthiers headed up by Joe Veillette.
Veillette, a former architect pursued guitar building full-time, opening Veillette–Citron with fellow luthier Harvey Citron in the late 1970's. A good number of well-respected guitarists and bassists have made a path to the Woodstock workshops in New York including Michael Anthony, Eddie Van Halen, Billy Sheehan and Stefan Lessard of the Dave Matthews Band.
This 2008 model is in good condition - and was designed to bridge the gap between an upright bass and bass guitar.
This exact guitar was reviewed by Bass Guitar Magazine in early 2008
