Newest build

Sign in to disble this ad
Sadly, the pick pics I had of this during the building process were deleted, but I wanted to post the almost finished pics for comments.

Body: Canary Wood top, Black Limba back. Bubinga and maple center block.

I used the neck I had on another bass that got broken at our practice space, but I have a Padauk/wenge neck I can switch out If I feel like it.

So what do you think?

pretty - was there any particular rationale for your neck bolt placement?

I like the staggered look better. It's similar to the bolt pattern on my warwick thumb.
