10 days from delivery to playing on my Hofner style Violin Bass. A few little hiccups along the way but nothing too difficult to solve or work around. Finish is truoil and I was not chasing a glass finish so some grain has been left. This is intentional and light very fine wire wool was used after cut and polish, The finish is exactly as I wanted. I found truoil a fantastic product and wet sanding achieved miracles. Sound is lovely, playability is great, heaps of sustain and lots of punch now I have the pups at the correct height. The control panel was purposely installed upside down so I could see it in the playing position. I used Fender Jazz Bass specs for the set up of action and buzz free, nice and low. All in all a good project and not too hard to achieve an acceptable result.
