Beautiful bass! Hope you get many, many years of playing out of it! |

also which machine extension is that? | It is an "English" Extension (based on a fawcett is my understanding). It is called an "English extension" in the description papers. Quote:

How deep are those ribs? | Well, to start, it is a slab-cut fir top, willow back and sides and a poplar neck. I will have to get back to you with the measurements although I think my bass has identical measurements to THIS one.
I have a paper describing all the woods, measurements etc, I just need to find it.
