    Alrighty then..
    Time for a mock up to make sure everything works before the final finessing (slotting saddles, cleaning saddle slots, logo, finish moulding the bridge, sanding, sanding, sanding and more sanding etc etc)

    Was going to use a bone bridge but decided to go a bit more left field and use individual chunks of Mother of Pearl instead.
    Nearly drove myself insane doing it but it works 8-)

    Plugged her in and she sounds sweet :P

    wow DB love the MOP saddle touch, so the down pressure of the string should lock in the position ? have you put a groove in the MOP yet or are they sitting ontop ?
    Can't wait to see the beast Sunday !

    Yhep, the theory is the pressure will hold 'em... seems to work OK.
    I will groove them when I intonate, so I can get it spot on.

    Sorry for the tardy response. I tripped over my tongue. Drop dead gorgeous bass DB. Is it for anyone in particular?

    Hahahaha! Nice one Lawry.

    This is an experimental one, so it will join my ever growing collection..... much to the dismay of Miss Fiona.... Unless, of course, someone offers me the right dollars for it
