My new Tom Clement 4-string fretless is done, and should be one its way to me (after Tom gets one more jam session with it).

Needless to say, I can't wait to get it in my hands!

Tom.

Just love the looks of that ACG Jared, its gonna be sweet!

Here are some updated pics of my Lecompte build. Its in the finish stage. It won't be long now!!

Always great stuff here!
The Dingwall; the D Fernandez; the ACG; really, really nice.

Kind of a Pedulla MVP meets Lecompte P4T:

(The Color & final P/G shape are yet to be determined)

Thanks guys, I'm pretty excited by the way my ACG is coming out too. And you two both have some incredible looking basses in the works as well. I've always admired Bud's designs and those two look especially good.

I recently got another update from Alan on my ACG Recurve 6 and it has been routed for electronics and is in the finishing process now. I think the camphor top and back will really "pop" when the finish is applied. Won't be long now!

No love for ma bass?

(Just wait until the high polish finish).

Here are the final pics from Sheldon. I'm sure I'll take a few more when it gets here.

Talk about stunned, that bass is even more killer in person! It plays like a dream, and sounds phenomenal! Sheldon is a true master craftsman.

So no love for Swedish basses?

Sorry dude,
I got love for your bass dude
Been watching your thread over the pond on b******t though, and you haven't updated the pics on there...

Think your bass is going to really be something special.
Really intrigued in how the 32" scale works out on the 5 string, seeing as I play 33" 5 and 6 string basses...

Cheers for now,
Eude

Nice looking bass, can you give me a run down on the woods you chose? Can't wait to see it oiled up!

 

[The_Owl]

Sure!

- Quartersawn maple neck with purpleheart stringers.
- Rosewood board.
- Mahogany body
- Koa top with matching headstock
- Colored black maple accent veneer between top and body

The finish will be high polish BTW!

Great videos mate!
The basses sound great!
Thank you

Was the 5 string that Ale was playing at the Fuzz Guitar Show, the last link, a 32" scale too?
Amazing sounding and looking bass.

Any idea how much one of those would cost?

Cheers,
Eude
