My new Bass creation

[Rinaldis]

No worries
I was referring to this glue joint in the neck:
View attachment 3530354

The current bass I am building (my first) has an offset headstock (a la Fender), so I didnt have to solve that particular puzzle yet.

What do you want to know exactly?

First colour coats done

Gonna need sunglasses

Learning by doing.... after having applied all the grain filler coats, I wasn’t happy with the balance & weight of the new EVO-FX5 body...
Therefore I ripped off everything & have started to reshaped the body ... still a lot of work to be done ...

After having ripped off the previous color, now you can see the new EVO-FX5 reshaped & with his final color, the wood grain is visible & I like this ...

Very nice job in the first bass ! Can I ask what screws and inserts you are using for the pickups ?
