OK, after reading through several hundred posts asking for you guys to post pictures of your builds, I was wondering how many of you have posted on Youtube. I have seen many of you put links to videos you have posted through-out many different threads. What I hope this thread will accomplish is to combine those videos in one place. I do think some parameters need to be in place. 1st: Please let's limit this to talkbass luthiers only! Please no posts of large production facilities. Let's keep it to Talkbass Luthiers! 2nd: please post links to instruments that have been built, been reviewed, under construction, construction methods, or shop tours....etc. Good luck and let the fun begin!
cool thread idea! when i get done i'll post a vid of my second build (currently still in the concept stage )
My son calls basses with those shaped bodies, "Whale Basses", perhaps because of the shape? or perhaps the size?
Here's a few more I dug up: maybass77, pale moon ebony: http://youtube.com/watch?v=lr5d955zYCE Valenti: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2OfvdbWM0Xk http://youtube.com/watch?v=ssrk_JMKoBY Tom Clement: http://youtube.com/watch?v=IExtoYxmCA0 Thirstygums:

Hey Wilser, I love your basses and your threads on different construction techniques. Tim lays low here on talkbass, he goes under the name callowhill here on TB. I am still searching out those ever elusive videos!
