Time for some show and tell. I was looking for a productive way to spend my free time while avoiding contact with the outside world and decided to try my hand at building a bass. (Well, a bass body as I already had a lonely neck laying around).
I'd never built much more than a box in highschool woodshop so it was an interesting way to learn a few new skills. While a little rough around the edges, I'm pretty happy with the final result and it plays much better than expected.
Info - Short scale 30", built from multiple pieces of scrap Tasmanian 'Oak' glued together, finished with a Rustoleum rattle can + clear coat and buffed satin with steel wool.
