Hi all 
New to these parts, and new to playing bass playing, but Hi, how are we all?
Here's my bass 
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I designed it, a friend of mine's husband built it it is made from African Mahogany, has my initials in pearl in the headstock, and has possibly Fender Jazz pickups, cost me £120 to have built

| | | Awesome looking and it has your initials in the headstock, uber cool.
You can certainly say that you own a unique bass, one of a kind.
Put removable attachments for four wooden legs on the backside and
it can double as a coffee table between gigs  |
