Why thank you, kind sir (takes a long, low bow)
It is a bit of a favourite. The weird thing is that it took about 1/20th of the time of my Jack Bruce Fretless tribute (see elsewhere in Gear Porn & Build Diaries), but to my eyes, looks just as impressive. Much of it, however, is to do with the magnificent piece of veneer - which I have NEVER been able to find anything close since. I can't even find out what it is. This is its natural (varnished) colour so it is close to Amboyna - but Amboyna has a very distinctive smell which this one didn't.
If anyone out there knows what it is (or has something similar) pleeeease let me know
In the meantime, thanks again, Big Stu
Andy

It's a really beautiful bit of work. The contrast between the veneer, the pickguard and the chrome looks lovely.
Here's my favourite squeeze.
