Tom Marceau Short-Scale Singlecut 31"

Nice clean work. I like that a lot. Nice body shape too. Will it get a full top or will you see the neck through the body? It looks great either way.

 

[pasco jacorius]

It will get a full top and a full back.

 

[devo_stevo]

Good choice. It looks great.

 

[pasco jacorius]

Thanks !!!

I've got some new pics there :

In the process : gluing the walnut and maple veneers under the fretboard , then gluing the whole thing to the neck. (That's quite sexy )

You can also notice the "pins" that help to maintain the fretboard in the right position along with the glue. (third picture)

Are you a doctor?

 

[pasco jacorius]

No. (???)

 

[lbridenstine]

Hahaha, I was wondering this whole time what that was supposed to say too.

 

[HaMMerHeD]

That inlay just looks a lot like my most recent medication prescription...

I am joking, of course. This is a beautiful clean, build. I rather like it.

 

[lbridenstine]

Really though, what does the inlay say?

 

[HaMMerHeD]

Really though, what does the inlay say?

I'm guessing "Marceau".

 

[pasco jacorius]

ROFL , It's not going to look like this once finished ! By the way I'm not Tom Marceau , just the customer he's making bass for ! But I'll ask him if he suscribed to a bachelor in medicine

 

[pasco jacorius]

Here's the headstock of another bass he's building , that's what the inlay will be like :

Okay cool, I was wondering if there was going to be linework in there.

 

[pasco jacorius]

I think he uses decals.

This guy might have been a manufacturing engineer in a previous life - this is an incredibly well thought out build, from that perspective alone.

I'm a manufacturing engineer (techically).

 

[pasco jacorius]

Yeah , very impressive ! Not a surprise (to me) that Lucky Peterson chose him to make his signature guitar.

You have taken CNC to a new level! That is just killer and I love the way you did the truss rods and graph rods. I really like the truss rod adjustment area. So cool!
