Always hoped (still do) he would eventually come back into building (at least part time). JP, care to comment?????
I should have bought your 31" sixer when i had the chance. Do you still have it? |

It was your work that helped to convince me to try a 33" 6 string, I've never looked back, got 33" 4, 5 and 6 strings now 
Eude | One skjoldslayer 4 string fretted
One Zia 6 string fretless
both 33" of course.
the rest of the specs is up to Pete  I love to let the luthier decide !

Sorry but I'm not coming back to bass building. I do build wooden passive houses if you'd like one 
I sold my personal Zia to someone in Japan. NO way to contact him now. I tried PMs, eail, internet, Facebook....no luck.
I wich I could buy it back
