    That looks seriously amazing. Once I'm down the track with my first build, I hope I can get my hands on a lefty one of these. Looking forward to seeing how this goes!

    My thoughts were for burning sun on the cap and Colombian gold on the back. Not sure about the neck. I may leave it natural and let the wood stripes do the talking.
    Not sure I's use Columbian Gold on a Bass Wood Guitar. Now Ash! That would be just the thing for Colombian Gold.

    Hey Gav. Why wouldn't you recommend Columbian Gold on basswood?

    Take two. The kit Photographed on the website was still at Adams so he was kind enough to let me swap kits. These pics show how much more figure the cap has. This is just a wipe of turps no sanding

    Does look amazing Wokka - great buy. I think the Minister for Finance would become the Minister for War if I got me one of these!
