Double Bass Lack of EUB plans: own design started

The body is pretty much finished.
At least for this prototype!
The dark color really does it for me!

Can you tell us what your body side dimensions are. I like what you have done and would like to try to build something like it. I did order a cheap 3/4 DB neck and would like to start my build next week. But I think I'll go with a flat finger board and bridge.
 
Well I used some standard 3/4 size dimensions like the height of the body, stringlength and bridge. The depth of the body is 120mm, app 5 inch?
The neck, unfortunately is a Eb 3/4 neck. but 3/4 size like the standard 3/4 stock FB.
It was just a matter of trial and error. Now I use a 4/4 bridge placed on 1/2 stringlength.
Bodywith was based on freehand sketching and not related to classic dimensions.
If you want specific dimensions feel free to PM me!
