This looks amazing. I really can't wait to see the zebrawood one come together.

After a bit of a break from building, I finally got some time to work on the neck for the next bass. This is actually the one I'm most excited about... the zebrawood bass. Because I expect this one will end up being my main player, I was a little extra anal about profiling the neck. I also went a little thinner with this neck. I spent a lot of time on the transition from the neck to the body. Unfortunately in the pics I didn't have the neck slid all the way in to the body, but when properly fitted, the transition from the neck to body is very smooth - almost like a set neck or neck through. Once I have the neck properly mounted to the body, I'll refine it a little more. Given that winter is just around the corner, it's hard to say how much further I'll get with this one. I suppose if I can get a few more evenings in to finish up the woodworking, it's conceivable that I could get it sprayed before the really cold weather hits.

Wow... These are absolutely amazing.
I can't wait to see them all finished.

Also, I wouldn't be opposed to being gifted (or buying for extremely cheep as I'm poor) one of these as my first bass.

I'm interested to hear what you think of the Bill Lawrence pickups.

 

[Jason_A]

We've had abnormally warm weather the past few days, and I was fortunate to be able to take advantage of it a little. I got the threaded inserts installed and the pickup and control cavity routes finished up. Also radiused the fingerboard. I spent some time sanding the body and doing a little more work on the contours. I even shot it with a quick coat of sealer to see how it was going to look with a finish.

Get some real tools already!

Awesome, awesome, awesome! I'd love to have access to your workshop. A kitchen table does not a luthery make.
