Like this? Let me know if it's right or not. I wasn't sure if you were
getting a ramp or not so I did one with and one without.

FGY2, thanx Bro! ;-)

Folks, we finally have a solution to the backlog problem at the shop! We no longer need to actually build the basses...they can be made virtually!

;)

In all seriousness, these mock-ups are of stupendously high quality. Beautiful work!!

Any chance you can mock up a Monarch 6? Here's what we're looking at:

Monarch 6, 35" scale
Walnut body, Ash heel-block
Quilted Ash top (non-solid)
Maple neck
Asian Ebony fingerboard w/ pearl dots
Dual coil pickups
Asian Ebony pup covers (no holes), truss cover and backplate

Thx!

Aloha, Garey

this contains a big swath of fodera dna-
a triage'd hybrid to be sure, but...
hondo P originally, used on tons of tracks cuz it was a grindy insolent beast.. i got sick of our combative relationship so.. now with fodera neck that joey cut the nut as piccolo for (and countersunk the hondo bridge) , with hondo P pup, a de armond lipstick tube w/ coil pulltap, and a random pedal steel pickup.
it twangs like a patsy cline b-side and howls at the night wind, depending on its mood.
