Lawry, the Bridge is a floater... Intonation was actually rather easy.
It is within a bees knee of being spot on across the four. Same with the violin Bass.
It just took a few swipes with the nut file on the Bridge slots to get it close as.
Woks, it is 1mm and a fleas knee thick over the Pup.... GULP!
Max, thanx Mate... I really love Mr Tim's sense of design. The man is an amazing artist, he makes some of the most beautiful sculptures.
IMHO, Mr Tim is one of the best art and design talents I have seen.... It was a joy to build this Bass off Mr Tim's design.
I am seriously thinking about having a modified version as one of my standard production models, named the "Dingo Custom Luthiers experience featuring Mr Tim's Bass of E#xtreme Sexiness" :)
But only if Tim agrees as it is his design afterall........

Just saw and Ormsby Bass... Unfortunately I only have enough cash to make an outrageously insulting bid on this one, so I might hold back...

Perry does make some stunning Guitars.... I got to fondle one of his Bass's at his show/ exhibition last year.... I cried for a week when I had to hand it back to him, it was simply the most beautifully built Bass I had ever picked up... Perry is a constant source of inspiration for me and my goal is to one day build an Axe that is comparable to an Ormsby..... Good luck with that, DB :)

It is a (admittedly far fetched) goal of mine to own an Ormsby one day, not that I could ever do it justice with my playing skills, I just want to be able to hold it and bathe in it's glory.

wow some beautiful axes there Brendan and Pablo. Yes everyone wants to own an Ormsby axe.
@ DB I think if you take your time and get some exotic timbers you can build an axe at about the same level but without the glossy naughty room clear coats he puts on. Would be good to have a crack at building a multiscale neck, any idea what the fret dimensions would be ?
That Mr Tim bass you showed me yesterday is a beautiful build !

Something simple, but gorgeous. A 1979 Fender Precision bass in Sapphire.
