In between answering emails, doing a post office run and nanna nap i managed to final sand the body, finish off the neck- bone nut and inlays- and throw a few coats of stain on the body and headstock...

And lets not forget the side dots.... White plastic and Paua shell

When that pic of the body in colour came up on my screen it literally took my breath away.
So it's a fretless too ay. Careful now, you might pull me over to the darkside of the bass players with gems like this one.

Woks, the cresting wave shape on the fingerboard was just a flight of fancy on my behalf...
Thought it balanced out the headstock rather nicely... (Sure hope Rickenbacker don't see it and steal my idea)
As for the get out of the naughty room for free card, you almost needed it tonight.... Have you ever seen me put a timber hider.... Errrm... Pick guard on a build yet? :P

Hehe. Love how you think DB. I haven't played a fretted bass for years and I don't think I could ever go back./<\\/p>[]<\\/p>/Quote from dingobass on April 2, 2014, 18:30

I love the way the neck is looking, and the markers. What are you going to use on the fingerboard to toughen it up? Or am I jumping the gun too much here ;-)
