Four string Scroll for Bassman 275

[scottyd]

Here's the ebony board radiused with the maple lines in. The neck has a bookmatched veneer on the end to match the top when its glued in.

Here's the back of the neck starting to take shape, the volute will match the tranny block/heel.

Here's the scarf joint, its laminates of walnut, wenge veneers and mahogany to match the body.

tranny block... hahahahha, thats lookin nice Scott ! real nice, I particularly like the walnut top. The scarf joint is schaaaa-weeeet, nice colors. Congrats buddy ! lookin forward to seeing a finish on this one. keep it up !

That looks nicer than my Redeemer, I'm jealous! Keep up the good work Scott! Whoever is buying that bass will be happy for sure!!! Are the PUPs similar to the ones in the 5 string scroll that I have? I hope so, everyone compliments the tone of the 5 string scroll. BTW, I picked up a Fender Bassman 250 for it, sounds great with my GNX3000.

Cheers,

Rob

Hey Rob, glad to hear your still happy with your Redeemer! The pups in this bass are single coils, not the stacked humbuckers like your bass has. Congrats on the amp, let me know if you need anything.

Hey Scotty, could you take some more pictures of the scarf jointed headstock? That is some very cool work with the angles / veneers.
