    Top wood, those who know my work probably already know that I'm a sucker for sapwood and burls so this top is somewhat special to me cause it's both!, It's been sitting in my stock for a few years. I can't for the life of me remember where I got it....

    Lots of birdseye

    Wait. This bass is for Pamela Anderson!? You may want to think about a double cutaway rather than a single cut. ;)
