Special Edition Build off - Build em if ya got em

#141
Not a week has gone and I'm planning ( well, not only planning, made some orders too) my next project. I've been looking Music Man Bongo 4H and my eye has started to find many, many interesting shapes out of it.
So far I've ordered plans, wood, neck hardware minus tuners and bridge. Parts for pickup and pream plus tuners are next. So I' in with another build.

FYI ...... I made a list but,

Excel doesn't translate well to cut and paste into forum ......sooooo....

We have the following summary for this build off so far
48 Entries
38 are Active builds (Posts by the builder within the last 2 weeks)
Of the 38 builds...
7 are finish builds
20 are new builds
11 are parts builds

Just in case you are keeping score at home

I'm keeping track of this for when we go to vote

I wish I could post my excel spreadsheet so I could validate my thoughts on type of build (New, Finish, Parts)


Cheers

Ummmm - which category is mine in? "Shred a prior build and reincarnate it"??

Yeah,

This is why I wanted to post the excel spreadsheet

On my spreadsheet, I put you in parts build. You are not New, nor are you rebuild, but you are parting out an old build, is how i looked at it.

I'm totally in for putting people in the category they want, and my opinion can be swayed.

I'll try to figure out how to post that

Works for me. I follow your logic - the neck was salvaged as a "part", and the rest built around it. :thumbsup:

Holy F*&#

The builds going on here are nothing short of amazing.
Thanks to everybody for your work here so far.

Speaking of nice builds, there were a number of superlative builds that occurred with the Winter Build Off. I kinda feel like they've been treated like the red headed step child. We opened this build off before we finished the voting on that build off. By the time the voting was done, all attention was on this Build.

I ask that you please give the builders in the Winter Build one last round of congrats
Winter Build Off 2020 - Final

Thanks
