Dave Fowler Signature Bass

Dave has been a friend for many years. He has over 37 years experience in the industry - including personal artist management, tour management, and playing bass guitar for many multi-platinum artists. Dave's résumé includes Dolly Parton, Billy Bob Thornton, and Lorrie Morgan, just to name a few.

Dave graciously sat down with us and discussed his idea of a mini T-Bird bass that would have a distinct look and classic sound with unmatched playability. After months of meticulous design, changes and dialing in details, we were able to produce the Dave Fowler Signature Bass. We are honored and thrilled to have Dave as a member of the Hughes Guitars family and our first signature Artist.
