I am definitely glad I did not rush back into production as I was in pretty much constant pain in my right arm, shoulder and wrist after getting hit. No way to work the equipment or tighten clamps. It sure feels good to be back at it.
I'm hoping to get a singlecut prototype started shortly as well, and will post photos of that bass as we go.

I think you're seeing yellow glue to hold in place the carbon fiber rods.

We looked at four possible bookmatch options for the customer's chosen top and both concluded that this one takes the cake (my wife liked this one the most as well)

You will fall in love with this top - the spalt line matches the curvature of the body precisely as if they were made for each other.

That bass was the one I learned to play on when I was nine years old and in the jazz band...playing with a young female Kelly Kapowski-esque drummer that would become "wifey" 20 years later.  I'll be watching to see what you do with the ol' black beauty, that's for SURE!!!
