Addison,

Trim the top into about 15/16 fret and it'd "flow" better IMO.



God Bless, Ray

SingleKuttBass?


I like it, though, to be honest, I'd prefer the upper slab to be sleeker, more like a Benevente.

Man! You're good with Photo Shop!

That looks really good! I'm not a real "single cut kind of guy" but that really looks nice!

...

The upper cut of an SKB already goes to the 17th fret... trimming my single cut design back to the 16th fret kind of ruins the whole idea of a single cut in the first place, doesn't it?

It would also kill the balance.

Nope... I like it the way it is... that's how it is in my dreams.

For the record, Elrick has one of my top 2 favorite single cut designs ever, so this is what was in my head when I whipped that up...

That's cool man, only offering opinion.

I wasn't saying to make a "horn" Ala the SKB but to round the top further "in" to get better access. What I see in my minds eye I don't think would be drastic enough that you wouldn't like it, but I'm terrible at PS.



God Bless, Ray
