While it's technically not NBD as I picked this up earlier this month, you get the idea. Local(Calgary AB, Canada) luthier who's built for years, but is just starting to really get his basses out there. A five string, 24 fret P bass style build. Alder body, maple neck and wenge fingerboard, with wenge binding. Zero fret. Radius is compound from 10-14”, and neck rear is asymmetric, 35” scale. Bill Lawrence P-46 pickups with series/parallel switch. Just put some GHS precision flats on it, and so far so good.

Thanks all. The builder has some other projects in the works and they're beautiful. He also does after market installs of an in-bass headphone amp/aux-in on active basses, though I have a PJB Bighead so I don't really need that done, but I like the idea. All you see is the 2 1/8in ports on the back of the bass. Pretty discreet.
