Club Bordwell Part 3

Wait Scott... If you have your basses already that means it won't be long now before my new bass is started. Can't wait to see how this new design turns out!

Cliff sent word that he'd already started on mine - there was a question about something that needed to be addressed. I'm guessing we'll see updates in a couple of weeks.

Mine as well!!! Super excited to take delivery of my first custom Bass.

Same here. My (former) Stambaugh doesn't count as I bought it used. It'll be kid-in-a-candy-store time once the updates start hitting the news page. Well, more along the lines of kid-with-face-plastered-up-against-the-glass-waiting-for-the-candy-store-to-open time.

Right!! I do that already and mine isn't even one posted...

Wow! That's going to look and sound great! Is the headless Cliff's new single cut? Your bass must be in the same batch as my fretted Ball 5. So yeah, Novemberish. Looks like Thanksgiving is going to be better than Christmas this year!

 

[basssalad]

It is the standard SC design although the back of the body is going to be a little different where the tuners go. That's all up to Cliff.

 

[TapyTap]

Dola?

...Cliff?

 

[Cliff Bordwell]

The new upcoming Singlecut shape.... "Dola".

 

[TapyTap]

The name "Dola" has me curious...what is the significance?

 

[Cliff Bordwell]

It's a combination of words.

 

[Bassmanbob]

It's a combination of words.

Dola...

Tribute to your dog Lana?

Fond memories of your old girlfriend Donna who moved to Los Angeles?

I think it's fair to say that I'm stunned.

 

[anezthes]

Beautiful!

Here's a pic to hold everyone over until I get someone to take some decent pictures for me. The basses turned out perfect! I'll be writing reviews soon.
