This is a thread that it was already posted, but it disappear on me…I don’t know how!!! I’m in the process of restoring this DB that I just bought for that….I got “0” experience on DB building.. medium wood working skill… small work shop, few tools, and I am a full time slave on a big corporation Mo-Fr… and I have a demanding wife ….I do love her by the way….(Just so u know why sometimes my project take longer than Average
)
So being said that… I’m also post on Ken Smith Forum, where I have collected invaluable knowledge for the Luthiers and pros out there…..
About the Bass…as far as I can tell you.. is a Czechoslovakian old bass some say its from 1940's some may be newest, fully carve 95% sure… figured maple neck.. ¾… and I don’t know nothing else about it…
Right now Im in a hunt for a local Luthier who can shed some light on me!!!
