What do you guys think of the new shape?

Thanks to Beav's Graphics for the rendition.

i like it too...the only thing i would say in criticism is that angle where the top horn meets the fretboard...i would bring it in just a touch

 

[:Kapral:]

The shape is ok for me, except that upper wing - it should be more you know, like cutted. It's attached to neck too near the head, in my opinion .

 

[Mark Wilson]

I'd like it as a singlecut Design

[Dbassmon]

Nice Design! perhaps make the top cut a little deeper and rounder. (not so perpendicular to the FB)

 

[Micolao]

I like it

 

[Nino Valenti]

I like it alot. I think that the extended horn will help with neck dive that bother some people.

 

[Smallmouth_Bass]

The bottom "hook" by the bridge is very Dingwall-like.
Looks pretty good to me!

 

[ebe9]

Looks good.

Reminds me a little of a Conklin

 

[SnakeAnthony]

I dig the look of it, only I'd have to agree that the junction of the upper horn and the neck isn't the greatest looking thing I've ever seen. Try making it connect at the same angle and the lower horn. I don't know exactly how to explain, but do you understand what I mean? Like take the same angle that the connection of the lower horn is at, and draw a straight line across the FB at that angle, and thats where the Upper Horn should start.

I like it a lot, maybe I'd adjust the lower horn to be a bit smaller

 

[Munjibunga]

I like it the way it is. I kind of has a double/single cut combo look. Leave it alone.

It looks like another design from about five other bass makers. Scrap it. Seriously.
Personally I would take the great designs you presently have and smooth the body radii a little to make them not just great but superb.

Hey..you asked.

 

[Arthur U. Poon]

I like it alot.

 

[anonymous278347457]

I love it,

but can you please expain why someone has to take a bite out of the bottom? it looks cool, but is there any practical reason for it?

 

[MaskedJackal]

I thoroughly dig it! And if you've seen my custom fretless I built, you know I'm all about huge upper horns to counterbalance it.

 

[mark beem]

I'd hit it!!

 

[Fretless5verfan]

I'd hit it!!

+1

 

[Gegatso]

I like the design but I'd also make the cut from the upper horn have the look that it flows directly into the arc of the lower.
